Subject: Welcome new Regent Shea Conley

 

Dear Colleagues,

Please join me in welcoming Shea William Conley as a new member of the Northern Kentucky University Board of Regents following his appointment this month by Governor Andy Beshear. Shea replaces Rich Boehne (‘81), and his term will run through the 2029-30 academic year.

Shea’s distinguished career as a litigation attorney and his dedication to serving both the legal profession and the community make him an outstanding addition to our Board. His extensive experience and commitment to excellence will be invaluable as we continue to advance NKU’s mission.

Shea has tried cases in state and federal courts throughout Kentucky and affirmed victories for clients in the Sixth Circuit Court of Appeals and in the Kentucky Court of Appeals and Supreme Court. He is currently an attorney at Morgan & Morgan, helping clients with product liability, catastrophic personal injury, wrongful death, insurance contract and bad faith cases.

I would like to thank Rich Boehne for his years of service on the Board. It has been a pleasure partnering with him in moving this institution forward and I look forward to working with Shea in the years ahead.

All my best,

 

Cady Short-Thompson, Ph.D.

President
