Dear MCAD community,
As co-chairs of the Presidential Search Committee, we are happy to report that the search is proceeding well and on schedule. We have now identified a select number of individuals that we will be invited to campus in the next several weeks.
While it is customary at the campus stage to have a "closed" or confidential search process, we are planning a campus round with select groups of faculty, students, staff, and administrators who will serve three very important roles:
- To meet with and represent MCAD to our finalists
- To share with the committee their opinions of each candidate
- To help the search committee and Board in the recruitment of our next president.
We are especially grateful to the faculty, staff, and students who have agreed to participate. The confidentiality of our process remains a paramount concern. We ask that you support your colleagues who are participating in these meetings by not asking them questions that will require them to break their pledges of confidentiality. As always, if you have any questions, please feel free to be in touch with us directly.
Best regards,
Chris Barry and Greg Hoffman
Co-Chairs, Presidential Search Commitee
