Panel selects 5 Finalists for NDSU President

[NDSU1980]

Based on this assessment I'm guessing Holz-Clause is an excellent candidate. Her resume is impressive having been at Iowa State, UConn, and Cal Poly, all excellent universities.

All of these candidates have impressive backgrounds. Good luck to all of them.

But which ones are pro FBS?

I'd just like to thank everyone for assembling a panel and not a committee.

Where did Joe Chapman come from? Was he from an impressive school? I honestly don’t recall. What matter most are (1) vision, (2) passion for the cause (NDSU), and (3) relevant experience.

The experience of some of the candidates (i.e., where they have been and what they have done) would seem to offset some of the "issues" of appearance associated with where they currently reside professionally.

I do know that there are some very bright people with deep, deep passion for NDSU on the search committee, so I will defer to them instead of passing judgement based simply on where the candidates would be coming from.

I always felt that an appreciation for the higher-ed landscape in ND was sort of critical, but I suppose that can be learned in short order.

Cook or Tidwell!

El-Rawini wouldn't have gotten a callback from me. Once you've associated with UND, that's a no from me dawg.

He probably made several rounds to make it to an in person interview.

If we're basing it off of a paragraph in a newspaper, Id say Cook looks good.

Pretty sure Chapman was provost at Montana State...

Ugh, at a headline level, this doesn't seem good. No, I haven't dug into their background and I'm sure they're all fine people. But this is a visibility / perception / leadership position, not a technical one.

I'd feel much better with a candidate from a major land grant that has a strong athletics focus. Too bad we don't already have someone like that.

Cook or Tidwell.

Mn lady, looks like a major lefty.
Larson, out of her element here.
El-No.

Looks like checking diversity boxes was top priority with list of 5. Where are candidates from Ok State, K-State, Nebraska, A&M. I liked cook’s Bio.

[El_Chapo]

like I said, if these 5 were picked in order for the Kansas guy to waltz thru for coronation then I'm fine with that.

HOWEVER if this is AN ATTEMPETED SABATOGE oF NDSU by the state higher board of ed then we should burn bismarck/grand forks to the ground metaphorically.

Welcome to 2022, and hope for the “best”.
