Presidential Search Update

Photo of a statue of two hands holding up a headThe application deadline for the President position was June 1, 2024, and the MSP search committee received 29 applications, 25 of which met qualifications. Applications came from multiple states and three countries.
 
The search committee met on June 4, 2024 to review the qualified applicants. As a result of that meeting and a follow-up meeting later that week, the committee selected seven applicants to invite to a first-round Zoom interview. These applicants have all been scheduled to interview the week of June 24th (three applicants on June 24th, two applicants on June 25th and two applicants on June 28th). The committee is now working on finalizing interview questions for those applicants.
 
Immediately following the seven interviews, the search committee will determine who to invite to the on-campus interviews which are currently scheduled for the weeks of July 8th and July 15th. Further information about those dates and times will be communicated as soon as available. We look forward to this process and to the involvement of all community members.
 
Questions regarding the searching, screening, and selecting of the President should be directed to the co-chairs of the search committee.
