Yeah, that won't help. Is there a schedule set for the Presidential search?.......search firm chosen....profile written by the firm?...applications/interviews.....?
@realist77 Yes. ValpoPal posted this back on Apri 1.
So here we are on April 1, and so far there has been no update from VU; the search could begin later in April and still meet the announced kick off.
I can report that the Search Committee was named last week—5 Board members (including chair Jon Steinbrecher), 2 faculty, 1 staff representative, and 1 alumni representative). They have been tasked during April to find a firm to assist with the search. The June 1 deadline you mention seems to be possible, but as you note, the timing also could be "strategic": "if they wait until the semester is over, campus visits will have far less interaction with students, and probably less interaction with faculty."
See the string on Padilla's retiring for more discussion on the search process. .
Thanks. For the 5 board members Jon S. and Winkler are two of them I think as new chair and vice-chair.. Have the other 3 been announced anywhere?
With Jon S. in the chair role I am guessing they will look for other facets and backgrounds from the other three.

Dr. Gundersen wrote a letter of recommendation for me a few years back. I had her for 2 economics courses. If she is as good at helping with the search as she is as a professor, then we are in good hands.
