The American Civil Liberties Union of Indiana has named longtime board member Frank Young as interim executive director.

Young, of Terre Haute, is professor emeritus of computer science and software engineering at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology and was head of the school’s Department of Computer Science and Software Engineering from 1987 to 2002.

Young replaces Gilbert Holmes, who was ACLU of Indiana executive director from 2008 until his retirement on March 31. Young takes leadership during a time of expansion for the organization into fundraising and education outreach made possible by a $500,000 gift from the estate of Albert G. and Sara I. Reuben.
