Dear colleagues,听听

To elevate the reputation of the 快活app locally and nationally, to continue to attract students from across the country, and to strongly position 快活app in the marketplace, the vice chancellor of marketing and communications position has been elevated to senior vice chancellor for university relations (SVC for university relations). In addition to overseeing 快活app鈥檚 marketing and communications efforts, the individual serving as SVC for university relations will oversee the Office of Government Relations and Community Affairs.听听

Higher education, and 快活app, are facing complex challenges. This moment requires a strong, strategic thinker鈥攕omeone with fresh ideas about how to tell the world about the incredible education and research 快活app offers. As an SVC, the individual in this position will work closely with me and 快活app鈥檚 SVC team on our institutional strategy.

The search process for this vital position has kicked off, co-led by Corinne Lengsfeld, senior vice provost for research and graduate education, and Todd Rinehart, vice chancellor for enrollment management. Our search firm partner is Isaacson, Miller.听

I have charged the search committee with finding three to five exceptional candidates whose professional background is not limited to higher education. The hiring process must meet our diversity, equity, and inclusion standards with a focus on minimizing bias. The committee will also involve campus stakeholders as appropriate, including campus visits. Finally, the committee will consider the values and characteristics of the candidates ensuring we find someone who prioritizes the best interests of 快活app and our community.听听

I am excited for this structural change and think it will help 快活app meet our first strategic imperative: ensuring our enduring future.听听

Thank you to our search co-chairs and committee members for your time and commitment and to Shira Good and Johanna Blickenstaff, who continue to serve as interim co-vice chancellors for marketing and communications.听
