By Joseph Lyell —

The first round of cuts in the presidential search process culled the original pool of 171 candidates down to approximately 10 at the March 8 trustee meeting. Trustees met with search consultant Bill Funk and reviewed 49 applications today.

“The pool looks excellent. It was naturally diverse by gender, racial and ethnic background, experience,” Black said.

After meeting for more than two and a half hours in closed session, Black said the remaining candidate pool has been narrowed and the smaller field shares the diversity of the original pool.
