Dear 新澳门六合彩内幕信息community,
I would like to share with you an important update on the search process for the next president of the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息.
At today鈥檚 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Board of Trustees meeting, we named a broadly representative, 15-member presidential search committee that follows the membership guidelines established by the Florida Board of Governors for presidential searches. Each member of the committee brings a unique perspective on USF鈥檚 future, and their diverse viewpoints will be valuable as this process moves ahead.
The committee, chaired by 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Board of Trustees Vice Chair Mike Griffin, is comprised of the following individuals:
- Chair Michael E. Griffin, 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Board of Trustees
- Vice Chair Melissa Seixas, State President 鈥� Duke Energy Florida, 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Board of Trustees

- Jose E. Valiente, Chair, 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Foundation Board of Directors, Retired Partner at Clifton Larson Allen, LLP
I have full confidence in this esteemed group of individuals, who care deeply about the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息 and its future.
The search committee will soon reach out to key stakeholder groups to define the position profile in alignment with USF鈥檚 mission and strategic aspirations; help market the position; and screen and interview the most qualified candidates, including providing opportunities for non-search committee members to interact with the finalists and provide feedback to the committee. The committee will then recommend an unranked list of finalists for ultimate consideration by the Board of Trustees.
After a thorough review of nationally regarded search firms, the 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Board of Trustees also today selected SP&A Executive Search, led by Alberto Pimentel, to work with the search committee and help attract a diverse pool of talented candidates. This firm has recent experience with similar roles at other public state universities in Florida, as well as for AAU institutions. Our search firm selection committee was also impressed by this firm鈥檚 understanding of the changing higher education landscape nationally and its substantial candidate reach.
All meetings of the search committee will be open to the public. The full Board of Trustees will vote to select USF鈥檚 next president, subject to confirmation by the Florida Board of Governors. Visit for more information and opportunities for engagement in the process.
Thank you for your continued support and enthusiasm for USF's bright future.
GO BULLS!
Will Weatherford
Chair, 新澳门六合彩内幕信息Board of Trustees
