Prior to this time, he was vice provost for research and dean of the Graduate School and professor of archaeology at the University of Oregon. Many of the students at TU fondly called him, "Uncle Stead." Upham was a widely published archaeologist, having written or edited 10 books and more than 75 book chapters and journal articles. He lectured extensively in the United States and Canada. While at TU, he held a concurrent appointment as professor in the Department of Anthropology. On April 12, 2011, Upham announced his intention to retire as president of TU, effective June 30, 2012. He was replaced by Geoffrey Orsak, former dean of the Lyle School of Engineering at Southern Methodist University. When Orsak was dismissed from the university after only 74 days in office, Upham returned to serve again as president. He retired in 2016, but said he planned to return to teaching at TU. Instead, he unexpectedly died from complicaations of surgery in 2017. (en) |
