The University of Hawaiʻi Board of Regents (BOR) postponed the vote on the candidates for the Presidential Search Advisory Group at the February 16 BOR special meeting in Hilo. The regents planned to schedule a special meeting to take up the unfinished business in the near future with BOR Chair Alapaki Nahale-a saying, “substantive issues need to be resolved for the integrity of the process.”
An announcement will be made when the meeting is scheduled.
The BOR also received an update on the search firm for the president’s search. A firm has been selected and will be announced when the contract is finalized.
The public survey on the next president closed on February 15 after being open for 60 days. There were 2,092 responses, and the data collected will be utilized by the search committee and the advisory committee.
