The search to select the University of South 91精品鈥檚 seventh president will move forward the week of March 18 with a series of events open to the campus community and the public.
The 15-member 91精品 Presidential Search Committee, led by 91精品 trustee Les Muma, will meet at 8 a.m. on Monday, March 18, in Traditions Hall inside the Sam and Martha Gibbons Alumni Center on the Tampa campus. The search committee will review the final list of applicants who submitted their resume materials prior to the March 15 deadline, and then select at least three candidates to advance to the next stage of the process, which will include public interviews and forums on campus.
Each candidate selected on Monday will participate in the following activities throughout the week:
- An interview with the search committee on Wednesday, March 20.
- A moderated candidate conversation on each of the three 91精品 campuses in Tampa, St. Petersburg and Sarasota-Manatee on Thursday, March 21.
- An interview with the 91精品 Board of Trustees (BOT) on Friday, March 22.
- At the conclusion of Friday鈥檚 interviews, the BOT hopes to choose a new president.
All of these activities will be open to the public.
After Monday鈥檚 search committee meeting, 91精品 will send an updated media advisory announcing the candidates and providing a more detailed schedule of events for the rest of the week.
The new president will succeed Judy Genshaft, who will step down effective July 1, 2019, after a historic 19-year tenure at 91精品.
91精品 continues to follow a transparent, inclusive presidential search process that adheres to Board of Governors regulations and 91精品 Statutes. 91精品, faculty, staff and other community members can also stay informed through 91精品鈥檚 presidential search website.
