Tuesday, July 2, 2019

The Division for University Advancement will host campus forums for the three finalists for the position of Associate Vice Chancellor for University Communications.

Perhaps no field has changed in the past two decades as much as communications. Social media, data analytics and the proliferation of platforms and channels have reshaped the way that University Communications develops and delivers its messaging. Moreover, University Communications operates within a playing field that is constantly evolving. To help the campus better understand the candidates’ vision for the future, each finalist, during a 30-40 minute presentation, will respond to the simple question: What’s next?

Candidates will deliver their presentations in Tate Hall, Harris Alumni Center; times and dates are listed below. Faculty and staff are encouraged to attend.
