Western Michigan University trustees have approved extending the contract of WMU President John Dunn for another two years. 

The board voted unanimously Friday to extend the president's contract through June of 2017. Dunn says he's very pleased with the extension. He says it didn't take much persuasion to convince him to agree to two more years.

Dunn will also receive a 2% raise, the same as other university employees received July first. Dunn says he will continue his practice of donating any money above his starting salary, set in 2007, to financial aid for students. 

Western's president says his health is good, and  he hasn't set a retirement date.
