The announcement of the search for a permanent provost for the Main Campus will be circulating nationwide by the end of the week.
According to Dr. Carter Wilson, co-chair of the Provost Search Committee, chair of Faculty Senate and professor of political science, the advertisement will appear in numerous electronic and print publications, with the Chronicle of Higher Education Web site among the first listings.
“We have an aggressive plan, which we believe will yield a pool of highly qualified candidates for this important position,” Wilson said.
The search firm of Baker-Parker and Associates Inc. in Atlanta has been retained to assist the committee.
The advertisement is scheduled to appear in:
• Chronicle of Higher Education (Oct. 13 and Oct. 20);
• Diverse Issues in Higher Education (Oct. 19);
• Women in Higher Education (Nov. 1);
• Hispanic Outlook (Oct. 23);
• The University of Toledo Web site (Oct. 2); and
• Other key academic Web sites.
The group plans to begin discussing curriculum vitae in January, with finalists visiting campus in mid-February.
“It is our hope that the entire campus community, faculty members in particular, will help spread the word about the tremendous opportunity we have here at The University of Toledo,” Wilson said. “President Jacobs has established a tremendous committee to take on this significant task, and we will need everyone to help spread the word.”
The president’s charge to the committee and membership can be viewed by downloading the Aug. 1 memorandum on new working groups at http://www.utoledo.edu/President/New%20Working%20Groups%20Memo.doc.
