University of Pikeville taps Bentley as CFO

Kentucky's University of Pikeville has named Barry Bentley its vice president for finance and business affairs.

Pikeville President Burton Webb cited Bentley’s 25 years of financial experience and his integrity as key factors in the decision. Before coming to Pikeville, Bentley served in a similar role at Metropolitan Indianapolis Public Broadcasting Inc.

“My wife, Cyndee, and I are very excited about me joining the team here at UPIKE,” Bentley said. "We never expected to move away from our home in central Indiana, but we just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to come to UPIKE and be a part of these exciting times for the university.”
