SUNY on track for new leader this summer

May
13

 The State University of New York is making progress on finding a new chancellor for the 64-campus system and is on track to make an appointment during summer, Board of Trustees Chairman Carl Hayden reported today.  

SUNY has been without a permanent chancellor since John Ryan resigned from the $340,000-per-year position last May. John Clark is interim chancellor.

   With the help of its hired search firm, the search committee reviewed the credentials of about 30 potential candidates a few weeks ago and whittled the number down to six. A few of them need to interview as soon as possible because of other potential job offers, so a few members of the search committee will be traveling to meet with them in coming weeks, Hayden said.

   Hayden said he was not satisfied that the list of candidates is “sufficiently diverse,” and SUNY is working with the search firm to change that. The committee will not make a decision until it has “an appropriately diverse array” of people, he said.

    Translation: White males need not apply.

    $340,000 salary?! We need to trim about 310k off of that number.

    I bid 315 off. There’s still probably at least another invisible 200 not included in the 340 in “expenses,” Hawaiian conferences, golf junkets, vehicles, housing, health, and on and on.
