“UNT is uniquely positioned to make a transformative difference for our entire campus community and businesses, industries and civic organizations throughout North Texas and across Texas,” UNT President Harrison Keller said in a university news release. “As the largest public university in the Dallas-Fort Worth region and the third largest in the state, UNT is leading the way in expanding opportunities for Texas students and driving the state’s creative economy.”

Keller joined UNT as president Aug. 1. According to the release, he is committed to working on three areas for the university:

The university is looking into how it can serve more students, Harrison said in an interview with Community Impact. He explained UNT will continue to partner with educational institutions and community leaders to ensure North Texas and Texas as a whole remain competitive in the future.


"We have a responsibility to drive the competitiveness of this economy," Harrison said.
