 Subject: MASSMAIL - Student suggestions for Provost Search Committee

Dear Students,
 
Chancellor Phyllis Wise has asked the Senate 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, a 
Provost Search Committee will consist of 11 members: 8 faculty (5 elected 
by the Senate, 3 appointed by the Chancellor), 2 students (1 elected by 
the Senate, 1 appointed by the Chancellor), and 1 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 8 faculty members. This composition of the Search 
Committee is identical to recent provost searches.
 
To begin the process of selecting the members of the Search Committee who 
are to be elected by the Senate, we are requesting 
nominations/applications from the students for the search committee. The 
Committee on Committees will then present 2 to 4 names to the Senate, 
which will vote on the slate at the December 5 Senate meeting. The 
student receiving the highest numbers of votes shall be elected and will 
be sent to the Chancellor.
 
In order to give the Committee on Committees time to act before the 
Senate agenda is published, we request that applications be submitted 
before 5 PM on November 11 through the following link:

Thank you!
