Student Affairs VP Update

Dear UNI Family,

I want to update you on the vice president for student affairs search. Because this is a critical position for student success, we have decided not to fill the position at this time. Although the candidate pool was strong, we did not find the right fit for UNI.

The search is being closed immediately. We will reopen the search in the near future with the end goal of our new vice president starting on January 1, 2017. Michael Hager, senior vice president for finance and operations, and a representative from student affairs will co-chair the new search.

Thank you to the search committee for all of their hard work and to everyone involved with this process and to all who submitted feedback. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions.

Thank you,

President Bill Ruud
