Meet the Finalists for VP of Equity, Diversity, Inclusion & Accessibility

By 
Jen Teeter

The Vice President for Equity, Diversity, Inclusion and Accessibility Search Committee has recommended four finalists to President Coyle. Meet the finalists during on campus visits between Nov. 14 and 17. 

Candidates will meet with several groups on these dates and an open forum is available for staff and faculty who wish to meet the candidates. In-person attendance is preferred, but a Zoom link is available if needed. 

In order to maintain candidate’s confidentiality during this process, candidate materials are available via Box. We ask our Pacific community to keep candidate names and details confidential through the search process.

A record of attendees will be taken and those in attendance will be asked to provide feedback to the search committee following the open forum.
