 Subject: MASSMAIL - Faculty Suggestions for Provost Search Committee

To: UIUC Faculty
From: Kim Graber, Chair, Senate Committee on Committees 
Date: May 3, 2005
Re: Faculty Suggestions for Provost Search Committee

Richard Herman, former Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs, 
will be appointed Chancellor of the University of Illinois at Urbana-
Champaign, pending approval of the University Board of Trustees on May 19, 
2005.  As a result, the Senate Committee on Committees has been asked to 
develop a slate of nominees for the selection of a new provost and vice 
chancellor for academic affairs.

According to procedures approved by the Senate on April 25, 2005, a 
Provost Search Committee will consist of 11 members: eight faculty (five 
elected by the Senate; three appointed by the Chancellor), two students 
(one elected by the Senate; one appointed by the Chancellor), and one 
academic professional appointed by the Chancellor. One or more of the 
faculty appointees may have administrative appointments. The Chancellor 
will appoint a chair from among the eight faculty members.  The 
composition of the committee is identical to recent provost searches.

The Committee on Committees will present 10 to 12 names for the five 
faculty positions.  Therefore, we ask that faculty suggest names for 
membership on the Search Committee.  Suggestions that represent the 
diverse perspectives of the University are welcomed. 

Please send names via campus mail, email, or hand-delivery, by noon on 
Tuesday, May 10, 2005 to:

Professor Kim Graber
Chair, Senate Committee on Committees
