UW President Jay Rothman announced in a recent press release the three finalists for the chancellor position at UW–La Crosse. A Special Regent Committee selected the finalists from a list of candidates identified by an 11-member Search and Screen Committee.
The finalists are:
- James M. Beeby, provost and vice president for academic affairs at New Hampshire’s Keene State College;
- Betsy L. Morgan, interim chancellor at UW–La Crosse; and
- Christopher J. Olsen, provost and vice president for academic affairs at Indiana State University.
Next week, the candidates will participate in separate campus forums, offering opportunities for students, faculty, staff, and community members to interact directly with them. The finalists will also take part in a public conversation.
After reviewing campus feedback, Rothman and the Special Regent Committee will interview the finalists. The Special Regent Committee will recommend a single successful candidate to the Board of Regents, which must approve the appointment.
The person selected through this process will be UW–La Crosse’s 11th leader.
