Presidential Search

Finalists

After a national search that attracted a highly qualified and diverse pool of candidates, three finalists were selected. However, one finalist withdrew their candidacy, leaving two finalists for the CSM President recruitment.

The finalist on-campus visits included a morning meet & greet for the campus community and an afternoon forum as follows:
