Cal Poly announced today the three finalists for the position of university president to be filled upon Warren Baker’s retirement.
The candidates are:
- Dr. Sona K. Andrews, provost and vice president for student affairs and professor of geosciences at Boise State University
- Dr. Carlo Montemagno, dean and professor of engineering education at the University of Cincinnati
- Dr. Steven R. Angle, provost and professor of chemistry at Wright State University
The three candidates are scheduled to visit Cal Poly next week for student and faculty information sessions. Each day will feature an open student forum from 10:50 to 11:30 a.m., a faculty and staff forum from 1:10 to 1:50 p.m., a university and community open forum from 4:10 to 5:30 p.m. and a campus reception from 5:30 to 6:30 p.m.
Andrews will visit the campus on May 23 and 24, Montemagno’s visit will fall on May 24 and 25 and Angle will visit on May 25 and 26.
More information, including event times and locations can be found on the Cal Poly home page.
Just curious, but I was wondering if any of these folks had an inside track? Like maybe they… how do I say this delicately… went to Notre Dame?
I also wonder why three virtually obscure candidates with almost no internet persona were selected? …or was that they idea? I don’t see a ‘National Reputation” in any of these characters.
Will these sessions be highly structured? Will all candidates field questions or have to share the puny 40 or 50 minutes allocated in some cases?
I guess everyone will just have to see what happens down the road.
Roger, isn’t it time you returned to your blog and continued ripping Cal Poly to hopefully get even for your wife not getting a position as a professor at the university?
Come on dude. Let it go.
You never attended Cal Poly and you’ve become known as nothing more than the local wingnut with an axe to grind.
Move on (maybe back to San Marino). It will give you piece of mind.
Yes Roger! How dare you share your opinions? This is SLO… not San Francisco or Los Angeles!
