I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday break and 2025 is off to a great start. As promised, we wanted to update you on the presidential search.  As you might remember from our last update, we placed the advertisements in early November, and our consultants began their recruitment efforts in earnest. Since then, they have reached out to more than 1400 prospects and sources, which resulted in a robust and diverse pool. Our numbers to date are below.

Nominations= 66

Applications= 76

The search committee has begun the review of the application materials and will come together in mid-February to discuss and select a group of candidates to interview in person.

We are excited to be entering this important phase of the search and will continue to update you as it progresses over the next couple of months.

Sincerely,

Janet Lopez, Chair, Presidential Search Committee

Mary Rubadeau, Chair, Board of Trustees
