Today In Wyoming's History: April 2: 2026 Brig. Gen. Shane Reeves, currently the dean of the Academic Board at the U.S. Military Academy in West Point, New York, was offered a contract by a vote of the UW Board of Trustees. He accepted.
He beat out finalist Kelly Crane, who has served as dean of the College of Agriculture, Life Sciences, and Natural Resources since 2024. Crane served UW Extension as an area educator and range specialist from 1994-2002. He was the principal consultant for Frontier Natural Resource Consulting until 2008, when he accepted the position of assistant professor/range extension specialist at the University of Idaho, which he held from 2008-2011. He came back to UW in 2011 as associate director for UW Extension. In 2019, he was appointed associate dean and director of UW Extension.
Reeves was a 1996 graduate of the U.S. Military Academy. He went on to get a law degree from William and Mary in 2003 and is admitted to the Virginia bar. He's been serving as the Dean of the Military Academy. He's originally from Sweetwater County, but obviously hasn't lived there for 30 years.
Hmmm. . .
I think they made the wrong choice.
Anyhow, a news story sets out his early priorities.
