Board names 11-member presidential search committee and outlines confidential process
Summary
Board member Bill announced an 11-member presidential search committee that will meet to begin a confidential search process. Trustees said the committee will sign confidentiality agreements and that the process will include internal and external candidates.
Board member Bill told trustees the board has appointed an 11-member presidential search committee and will hold its first meeting on Monday to begin confidential review of applicants. He said the committee will discuss process, constraints and confidentiality and that members will sign agreements to keep candidate identities private.
Bill said the committee will accept internal and external applicants and that trustees expect a confidential process so that applicants’ current employers are not notified unless applicants desire it. Interim President Pat and other trustees said the board should keep pressure on fiscal issues while the search proceeds and not rush hiring a new president until the university’s budget situation is stabilized.
Bill and Pat both described the search as underway and confidential, with the committee scheduled to begin immediate review and screening work. Trustees did not state a target hire date in the meeting record and said the committee will report back to the full board with recommendations and any procedural issues that require board action.
