Committee Searching For New UK President
KENTUCKY....
A 12-person search committee has been named to find the new 12th president of the University of Kentucky. UK Board of Trustees Chairman Britt Brockman announced Tuesday that the panel's goal is to extend an offer to a new president by May 1st, with on-campus interviews of three to five finalists in April. Lee Todd, who has been the president of the state's flagship university for a decade, announced in September he would step down when his contract expires in June. The search committee includes members of the board of trustees as well as faculty, students, staff and alumni.
The university is developing a website, http://www.uky.edu/presidentialsearch , that will contain information about the committee and the search process.
