Insights and tidbits from the state Capitol

SUNY chancellor search committee launched

November
27

Earlier today, State University of New York Board Chairman Carl Hayden of Elmira announced the members of the search committee for a new chancellor. Seventeen people have been appointed to the committee, with an 18th member to be announced soon, he said. The panel is seeking a chancellor to replace John Ryan, who resigned this spring.

There is a sense of urgency about filling the $350,000-per-year position, Hayden said, “but at the same time we will take the time to do the job that is expected of us.”

The committee includes several trustees, SUNY college presidents, a professor, president of the Faculty Senate, members of the private sector and others. The high caliber of the committee members shows that SUNY has a “seriousness of purpose” in its search, Hayden said.

SUNY has hired the Boston-based executive search firm Isaacson, Miller to assist the committee.

John Clark has been serving as interim chancellor until a new person is appointed.
