Dear Colleagues,
I am pleased to share some updates and next steps for the Provost Search. We have partnered with Greenwood Asher and Associates to support our search process and have also launched our Provost Search Website. We will post updates about the search process on this site throughout the year, and you will soon see links and recordings for campus listening sessions, a link for sharing suggestions with the committee, and a link to a nomination form to suggest candidates on this page.
Additionally, I would like to invite you to attend one of our three upcoming listening sessions. These sessions are an opportunity for the campus community to share suggestions for what qualities we are looking for in our next Provost, strengths and challenges our new Provost is likely to encounter, short- and long-term goals for achievement, and points of pride about Mason that we want to share with all candidates.
All faculty, staff, and students are invited to join us for one of the following three sessions:
Wednesday, November 1, 3-4pm: In-person Listening Session, JC Cinema
Thursday, November 2, 7-8pm: Zoom Listening Session #1,
Friday, November 3, 10-11am: Zoom Listening Session #2,
If you are unable to join us for one of our listening sessions, please share your recommendations via the survey available on the Provost search website.
We look forward to hearing from you as we launch the first steps of our search process.
Best,
Melissa Broeckelman-Post
Provost Search Committee Chair
President of the Faculty Senate
