M Ravichandran, professor with the department of soil science and agricultural chemistry, Annamalai University, has been appointed to the syndicate of Bharathiar University as the governor's nominee.
The appointment comes after the expiry of three-year syndicate membership period of the earlier governor's nominee, S Sathappan, associate professor, department of computer science, Erode Arts and Science College, last month. A release from the university said Ravichandran was appointed on August 24 and would serve as the syndicate member for three years.
