We have several updates regarding the Presidential Search process as we enter the month of October.
Our search partners, CarterBaldwin, have led the outreach efforts to identify a strong pool of qualified candidates. More than 170 people submitted formal applications. By background these applicants included multiple college presidents and provosts, senior academic leaders, and senior leaders with experience in the for-profit, non-profit and military sectors.
The search consultants conducted initial screenings to determine the suitability of these candidates, and the Search Committee met in mid-September to reduce the candidate pool to a limited number of highly qualified semi-finalists.
The search consultants are now engaging in extended conversations with these semi-finalists and gathering relevant information. That process, which is intensive, will continue in coming weeks.
The search process is proceeding as hoped. Here’s a quick overview of the next steps and timeline updates:
- October: Interviewing Semi-Finalists
- November-December: Finalist Selection
