Oregon City campus only.
The word is out that Clackamas
needs a new college president.
The Board of Education sent
out a vacancy announcement last
week, after the board meeting on
Feb. 14.
At the meeting, they approved
the list of qualifications and qual
ities that a possible candidate for
the job must possess.
The list was compiled by
Presidential Search Consultant
Jon Carnahan, who led a series
of forums to determine what the
college is looking for and needs
in an administrative head.
The board will select members
for a screening committee at a
board meeting on March 14.
The screening committee will
consist of a number of commu
nity members, faculty and board
members. Their job will be to
read through all the applications
the college receives and compile
a ranked list of the candidates to
present to the board.
According to Board Member
Chuck Clemans, the board is
currently “getting names for the
committee.”
The subject of the committee
was a source of long discussion.
Dave Arter, faculty president,
voiced a concern that there were
not enough faculty present on the
proposed committee list. The list
was revised during the course of
the meeting to include more fac
ulty members.
Also approved was the
presidential search calendar.
According to the approved calen
dar, the closing date for candidate
applications is April 6.
