The following message was distributed by email to students and faculty and staff on May 9, 2023. 

Dear Members of the University Community,

The 91探花 is beginning the search for the next President and Vice-Chancellor to lead our provincial university and strengthen the high-quality post-secondary educational experience for which 91探花 is known.

It is my privilege, as a member of the 91探花 Board of Governors and chair of the Governance and Appeals Committee, to chair the Presidential Search Committee and work with members of the 91探花 community to help find our next President and Vice-Chancellor. The Presidential Search Committee membership is as follows:

Chair

• Shannon MacDonald

Elected by the Board of Governors

• Brian Thompson, Board Member
• Kateri Coade, Board Member
• Alex MacBeath, Board Member
• Susan Connolly, Staff Representative
• Adam MacKenzie, Student Representative

Elected by Senate

• Bill Waterman, Faculty of Business
• Richard Raiswell, Faculty of Arts
• Sue Dawson, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine
• Libby Osgood, Faculty of Engineering

The search for a new president will include a number of opportunities for input from a wide range of representatives of the University community. Your thoughtful contributions will be critical to ensuring the Presidential Search Committee has a clear vision of what we need to look for in the next President and Vice-Chancellor, to ensure their qualities align with the University鈥檚 values and mission.

We look forward to communicating with you again soon to update you on the Committee鈥檚 progress and to outline the process going forward.

Sincerely,

Shannon MacDonald, FCA, CPA, ICD.D
Chair, Presidential Search Committee
