On behalf of the Presidential Search Committee, we wanted thank our internal and external communities and stakeholders for your engagement in the consultation and continued interest in this very important process. As an update, the search committee has closely examined a strong list of candidates. There have been some very early morning starts and late evenings for the Search Committee with rich, diverse and challenging discussions. While there is still much work ahead we are making good progress in narrowing a pool of candidates. Of course, as we diligently work in protecting the privacy of our prospective candidates, we must be brief and measured in what we share. Still, we did want to keep you apprised of our positive progress as we continue this critical, confidential work.
The advertisement for the President and Vice-Chancellor has been finalized and it has started to appear on various sites.
The process of community consultation has started. Please refer to the Community Input section for information on sessions held and how to continue to provide feedback.
The President & Vice-Chancellor Search Committee last met the end of January to select the search consultant. The Committee is looking forward to meeting again within the next few weeks and continuing to move this process forward. Information on input opportunities will be made public when confirmed.
