We look forward to hearing from you!

Otterbein Engaged in Search for Next President Members of the Presidential Search Committee have been busy over the past months, sorting through resumes, conducting phone conversations and interviewing nine candidates to be the next president of Otterbein College.

From the nine, three were invited to come to campus for two-day visits in early November. During the visits, each person spent time touring with students as well as talking with students, faculty, staff, alumni and area civic leaders. Many forums were held to engage open dialog including questions and answers. During the visits not only did the candidate learn more about the College and its culture but the campus community

172219_cover.indd 2

learned more about the candidates’ leadership skills and vision toward higher education and the challenges presented in the upcoming years including affordability, access, and an anticipated population dip in high school students throughout Ohio.

Once the visits were concluded, the campus was asked to submit its feedback. The feedback was reviewed by the search committee. Alumni may review the resumes of the candidates by contacting Mary Kerr at mkerr@otterbein. edu or calling 614-823-1420. It is anticipated a decision will be made and announced in early December. Alumni will be notified via email and information will be immediately posted at www.otterbein.edu.
