star2city Posted November 6, 2007 Share Posted November 6, 2007 Nope. Actually, it is possible. Lois Muir, provost of a university in Dubai, United Arab Emirates, may be added as a ninth candidate pending a reference check. Muir applied after the deadline for the first screening. Muir's application was accepted Monday by the committee. Doesn't appear that Provost Muir and Montana's President Dennison got along well ... http://chronicle.com/news/article/161/mont...ves-the-provost The University of Montana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is not uncommon for early round interviewing for high profile positions to take place in a more central location. This applies in business as well.

siouxjoy Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 So we sent and pay for the committee of 16 to stay in Mpls......to interview 8....Right That's still got to be cheaper than paying airfare, hotel, etc. for 5 people to come to GF from all over the country.

GeauxSioux Posted November 21, 2007 Author Share Posted November 21, 2007 At this point, the two candidates I think most likely to be president are Elbert and Smith. Elbert seems to have done a nice job with the College of Business and Smith with Aerospace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted November 21, 2007 Share Posted November 21, 2007 I still find it "interesting" that Weisenstein is chairing the AD search panel. Seems a most interesting convergence. I'm also surprised that Johnson is still in the running. I remember her from her days at "The Nut Lab" on the UND campus. I wouldn't put her into the "presidential" category. She's got resume. She can run a research organization. But can she do the politics and fundraising of the job? No track record. Sorry, but I need more in those key areas.

UND92,96 Posted January 2, 2008 Share Posted January 2, 2008 Things should start happening again soon with regard to the presidency. On-campus interviews are to take place sometime in January (according to the above-mentioned Nov. 28 Herald article), with a new president expected to be named in early February. Hopefully then the a.d. hiring process will then begin in earnest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CDog Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 I met the first candidate today, Robert Kelley. I'm going out on a limb and saying he's the next President of UND. Very straight shooter, down to earth, humorous. And the best part: he's a very firm believer in athletics' role at a University. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iramurphy Posted January 11, 2008 Share Posted January 11, 2008 Robert O. Kelley's day at UND: http://www.grandforksherald.com/articles/index.cfm?id=63431 Seems like a strong candidate but didn't mention athletics and the importance of athletics to a school of our size. That was a huge mistake. It is an important part of the marketing that needs to be done. He was correct in that UND's marketing is poor at best.

(sarcasm) In many ways, this new streak of continuous REA sell-outs contradicts the above statements about the REA. How can we possibly complain about a sold-out arena possibly for the entire year? Hodgson and Semrau have to be doing some things right and need to be given well-deserved credit. More marketing should be done if the arena wasn't selling out, but with the sell outs, that would be money-spent with little return. With the current REA management's track record, it seems like a good decision to market football and basketball through the REA next year.
