Chancellor finalist forums begin Feb. 22

Faculty, staff, students and the public are encouraged to attend open forums for each of the four finalists to be the next chancellor at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln.

Each candidate will spend roughly three days at UNL – a significant amount of that time reserved for meeting with various groups at the university. The finalists are Sabah Randhawa, provost and executive vice president at Oregon State University; April Mason, provost and senior vice president at Kansas State University; Daniel Reed, vice president for research and economic development at the University of Iowa; and Ronnie Green, vice chancellor of the Institute of Agriculture and Natural Resources and interim senior vice chancellor for academic affairs at UNL.

“I hope students, faculty, staff and all Nebraskans will take advantage of the many opportunities we are offering to meet the finalists and share their thoughts,” NU system president Hank Bounds said. “Feedback from our stakeholders is an important component of the search process.”
