Finalists for Dean of Graduate Studies making virtual campus visits

To: UC Santa Cruz Community

From: Campus Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor Lori Kletzer

I am happy to announce that starting Thursday, April 1, five finalists for the position of Vice Provost and Dean of Graduate Studies will be visiting our campus virtually. Candidates will meet with various constituents from the Chancellor’s and CP/EVC’s offices, as well as with other campus leaders, staff and graduate students over the course of two days.

During the visits, each candidate will give two public talks, a Scholarly Research Talk and a Town Hall Talk. A moderated Q&A will follow each presentation. The schedules for these talks are included below. We encourage everyone to watch through Zoom and to provide feedback via survey to the search committee.

Candidate names and CVs will be available one week prior to their visit. Materials, video recordings of candidate talks, and survey links will be placed in a Google document linked to the CP/EVC Leadership Searches webpage. Video recordings of candidate talks will be available for five days following the last of the five visits April 16.

The Vice Provost and Dean of Graduate Studies Search Committee hopes you will actively participate in this important search. Please direct questions about the recruitment process or interview schedule to Lauren Morgan at llmorgan@ucsc.edu.
