New schedule for provost finalists' campus visits

 

Editor's note: This story was updated on April 5.

The schedule for campus visits has been revised for the four finalists for Iowa State's senior vice president and provost post. No candidates will visit campus the week of April 8.

The first three finalists are scheduled to visit campus on these dates:

  • Candidate 1, April 15-16
  • Candidate 2, April 17-18
  • Candidate 3, April 22-23

Dates for the fourth candidate's visit are being finalized.

The name and curriculum vitae for each finalist will be shared on the administrative searches website the day preceding their visit.

Campus forums

Each candidate will meet with members of the university community during their two-day visit and participate in a campus forum at 3 p.m. on the first day. The forum schedule is:

  • Candidate 1, April 15, Alliant Energy-Lee Liu Auditorium, Howe Hall
  • Candidate 2, April 17, Sun Room, Memorial Union
  • Candidate 3, April 22, Sun Room, Memorial Union
  • Candidate 4, Date and location to be determined

For those who cannot attend in person, the forums will be recorded and made available on the search page after all the finalist visits are completed.

Everyone participating in a campus forum is encouraged to complete an online candidate feedback form for that candidate.

Vice president for economic development and industry relations and dean of the Ivy College of Business David Spalding is leading the 18-member search committee, assisted by Parker Executive Search firm. Senior vice president and provost Jonathan Wickert announced in January plans to return to the faculty this summer in the department of mechanical engineering.
