Don Krahn Changes Roles at WEAC

For medical reasons, Don Krahn has relinquished day-to-day duties as WEAC executive director.

He is serving out the remainder of his contract as executive director emeritus, providing ongoing consultation to WEAC on specific issues. He will retire at the end of August.

Terry Herndon is continuing to serve as acting executive director.

The WEAC Board of Directors will begin the search process for a new executive director this spring, said WEAC President Terry Craney.

Krahn took over as executive director in September of 1997 following the resignation of Charles Lentz, who is now executive director of the Arizona Education Association.

Herndon became acting executive director last fall when Krahn took leave for health reasons. Herndon is in the process of retiring as CEO of the WEA Insurance Group and is former executive director of the National Education Association
