Editor Still Needed for Our Web Site Material

As if we needed a reminder that some things may be slow to change, this currently appears as the top story on the CSU web site. Someone (preferably an English language speaker) needs to proofread this material before it's posted. This is embarrassing.

The article also states this year's enrollment at 7200 students. But hadn't you just recently blogged about how Spring enrollment was approx. 3600 (down 1000 from this Fall)? Do they think enrollment totals are calculated by adding Fall & Spring figures???

"1. He/she must be a scholar of national note, with significant peer review publications and books in his or her field. There must be no doubt as to his/her standing in the community of scholars. This would also include a history of the candidate’s participation in the appropriate professional organizations.

2. He/she must have served with distinction as the administrative head of a major unit within an institution of higher learning or at the important position of Provost and/or Dean. Of course, prior service at the presidential level is preferred.

3. He/she must have a documented history of raising significant monies from the private and public sectors. At most major and research one universities it is not unusual to expect the president to come with a plan to raise in excess of half a billion dollars or more in the first few years.

4. The prospective president must have a consensus buy-in from the faculty, students, administration and staff, therefore, arriving with a unity mandate to lead by joining a University community that has bought into his or her vision for the future."
