Critics says there was not enough input from those on campus when Mason was hired, and Regent’s board president Bruce Rastetter says there are several factors that will make this search different.
Rastetter says the U-I search committee will be a lot like the ones used at the other two schools.
Rastetter says the whole process could stretch beyond Mason’s retirement date.
Rastetter says the search for Mason’s successor will be nationwide, but will also include any candidates on campus that are interested. The board held a special meeting Tuesday to accept Mason’s retirement and lay out the plan for hiring a new president.
