Summary

Trustee J. Seals proposed dividing 14 interview questions evenly so each board member asks two; the board scheduled five candidate interviews with 10-minute breaks and said scores would be tallied after each interview.

At the Jan. 26 special meeting, Trustee J. Seals proposed that the board divide the 14 interview questions evenly among members so each asks two questions during candidate interviews.

Dr. Coleman confirmed the logistics: the panel would begin with question No. 1 with Trustee Seals, proceed around the table so each member asks two questions, and allow a brief 10-minute break between candidates to tally scores. The board recorded interview times for five candidates: Lula Woodward (5:15 p.m.), Khadijah Murrell (5:45 p.m.), Connie Johnson (6:15 p.m.), Alison Reed (6:45 p.m.), and Janae T. Bady (7:15 p.m.).

The panel used cumulative point totals after interviews to inform deliberation and a subsequent appointment motion. Secretary V. Harrison later read the cumulative totals aloud during deliberation.
