RE:  Recruitment for Vice Chancellor-Student Affairs

I write to announce the recruitment for the position of Vice
Chancellor-Student Affairs.  Carol Wall, who has served in this capacity
with great distinction for the last five years, will be stepping down from
the position at the end of December.  The Vice Chancellor-Student Affairs
is responsible for initiating, developing, and maintaining programs and
services that support students in their academic pursuits, provide
stewardship for the campus climate, and promote leadership, teamwork, and
social responsibility.  A national search to fill this critically important
leadership position is underway.
 
We seek candidates of the highest caliber whose leadership ability and
commitment to excellence will contribute significantly to our campus.
Please share the attached position announcement with all faculty and staff
in your department and encourage them to nominate individuals they believe
would be appropriate for the position.
 
We seek to develop a strong, diverse pool of candidates from which the next
Vice Chancellor-Student Affairs will be selected.  Applications and
nominations should be sent directly to me at the Office of the Chancellor.
