Dear Members of the Bates Community,<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We write to offer another update on the search for Bates\u2019 next president.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Presidential Search Committee is now in the most intensive phase of its work, which is the assessment of candidates. This involves reviewing applications, evaluating candidates based on the qualifications described in the leadership profile<\/a>, selecting candidates for initial interviews, and identifying those who will advance as finalists. We are delighted to report that the candidate pool recruited by our search partners at Isaacson, Miller\u2014which included recommendations from a number of you\u2014was impressively strong, with applicants representing a broad range of backgrounds, experiences, and areas of expertise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The committee\u2019s work will proceed in the weeks ahead and culminate in the recommendation of one candidate to the Board of Trustees, as the Board\u2019s charge to the committee<\/a> requires. We expect that our next communication with you will be when Bates\u2019 ninth president is announced this spring.<\/p>\n\n\n\n In the meantime, if you have any questions about the presidential search process, please visit the search website<\/a> or write to us at presidentialsearch@bates.edu<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sincerely,<\/p>\n\n\n\n Andrea Conklin Bueschel \u201990 Dear Members of the Bates Community, We write to offer another update…<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":5,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_hide_ai_chatbot":false,"_ai_chatbot_style":"","associated_faculty":[],"_Page_Specific_Css":"","_bates_restrict_mod":false,"_table_of_contents_display":false,"_table_of_contents_location":"","_table_of_contents_disableSticky":false,"_is_featured":false,"footnotes":"","_bates_seo_meta_description":"","_bates_seo_block_robots":false,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_id":0,"_bates_seo_sharing_image_twitter_id":0,"_bates_seo_share_title":"","_bates_seo_canonical_overwrite":"","_bates_seo_twitter_template":""},"categories":[9124],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-741","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-9124"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/741","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/5"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=741"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/741\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":747,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/741\/revisions\/747"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=741"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=741"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.bates.edu\/presidential-search\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=741"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
