Dear Gonzaga Faculty, Staff, and Students:
As promised, albeit a bit later than I had hoped, this is a follow-up to my message of Monday, April 22, with additional information about the search for President McCulloh’s successor. I am very grateful to the following individuals who have agreed to serve on the Presidential Search Committee:
- Christy Larsen, Board Chair/Committee Chair
- Mike Reilly, Board Vice Chair/Committee Vice Chair
- Greg Bui, Trustee
- Becky Cates, Trustee
- Teresa Dominguez, Trustee
- Matt Eastman, Staff Assembly President
- Maddie Ediger, Student, GSBA President-Elect
- Christine Johnson, Trustee
- Dr. Tom McKenzie, Faculty, Arts & Sciences; Faculty President-Elect
- Scott Maw, Trustee
- Dr. Sue Niezgoda, Faculty, School of Engineering
- Renee Reuther, Trustee
- Cindy Runger, Vice Chair, Board of Regents
- Joe Smith, Chief Financial Officer
- Shannon Strahl, Deputy Director of Athletics
- Fr. Gilbert Sunghera, S.J., Superior, Della Strada Jesuit Community
The search process will be supported and assisted by two experienced consultants from the firm of Russell Reynolds Associates, Anne Coyle and Steve Newton. Anne and Steve will be on campus on May 2–3, meeting with various groups to begin facilitating our listening sessions. Our approach is to conduct listening sessions in three forums: in-person, online, and through a survey. Many of you will experience more than one opportunity to contribute. We seek input to assist in developing the leadership profile/position description. More information about these opportunities will be forthcoming, and periodic updates posted to the search website at gonzaga.edu/PresidentialSearch.
