It looks like three candidates will be coming to campus in the next week for a series of community forums. Last week it was announced that four people would be coming so someone has dropped out. Here's a link to what's going on.

From reading the article in The Post, based on their backgrounds , none of the candidates seem like they'll be a big supporter, let alone an advocate for athletics.
From reading their bio's on their current school's web site, my preference, not that it matters, would be Mr. Mukherjee.
Guy has a B.S. in Electrical Engineering. That's the toughest of all Engineering degrees.
Also can't believe O.U. limits the Open Forum for each candidate to 1 hour.

I agree the dude from Marshall appears the best of the lot, and seems more academically oriented. The gal from Louisville would be my second choice, because it looks like she would understand our area and its culture.

So any reports from the first forum? I wasn't able to go and did not have OU credentials to watch.

Susana seems a lot like a McDavis clone with a higher education leadership clone. Younger (55?) and the university would be getting her in her prime. From the west coast might offer new perspective.
Avi is late 50's has diverse experience in business education and likely have thoughts on how to market the school better. He hasn't been a provost particularly long though.
Lori is in her 60's and most part a career provost though briefly interim provost at Louisville. Backround reminds me of Nellis going for the cashout before retirement. Louisville passed over her once before.

Disagree on the Louisville gal. She would be my second choice. Guy from Marshall still first choice. Ball State lady a distant third, IMHO. I think she'd be kind of clone of our AD and more into platitudes than actual problem solving and advancing the institution. She's the one, I think, who would be more of the Nellis type hire -- says the right things but is very shallow and doesn't really look into issues in depth.

I can kind of see a clone of our AD too in Susana. But she has only worked at college towns her whole career. Job would be a challenge from her career level to date but that might mean she'll work harder to make it work. Was at two institutions with nice football stadiums (Oregon St, Ball St) so maybe she'll be ticked off at the state of Peden. Helps to project a diverse image in a growing demographic.
Louisville had some messy presidential hires and I think Lori to an extent is tied to it. At her age it might be a 5 year and out thing. A younger hire in their 50's might put in a full decade like Rod and Glidden both did.

Curious how you've reached the conclusion about platitudes vs. problem solving. Something she said in the forum? Or do you have prior knowledge of her and her work?

If we're considering current provost/dean level candidates for president, then yes we should be looking at top schools.
Not impressed with the pedigree here. Doesn't mean they are not good candidates, but it's not a good trend and it's not a good look.

Well, we've had a mixed bag from the Harvard and the Ivy League IMHO:
John C. Baker (1945–1961), excellent Vernon R. Alden (1962–1969), mediocre at best
And, one other president with a prestige school and Ivy League background -- Herman Gerlach James (1935-43) -- was also probably one of our better presidents. James held a law degree from the University of Chicago and a Ph.D. from Columbia.
It was James who reorganized the university into something resembling its modern form. When he assumed the presidency there were only two colleges -- Liberal Arts and Education. Under Liberal Arts all sorts of disciplines were covered from engineering to economics to languages, fine arts and philosophy. From this mess he created: the College of Arts and Sciences, the College of Applied Sciences (now College of Engineering), the College of Commerce (now College of Business), and the College of Fine Arts. He then took the departments of English, history, mathematics and music as well as other duplicate areas out of the College of Education and put them into one of the new academic colleges.
But, Alston Ellis (1901-1921), another of our finest presidents, was a graduate of a place we don't normally look to for leadership. Ellis secured legislative funding for the university and defeated a proposal to fund only O$U for regular college studies and then only the normal schools at Ohio and Miami. This was called the Lybarger Bill, introduced by a legislator from Coshocton. Where did Ellis receive his undergraduate and part of his graduate education? Of all places, it was That School in Oxford, and I'm not talking England here. He also had graduate and law degrees from O$U and Wooster.
The point of this history lesson? Good university leadership can come from all sorts of places -- from the Ivy league to the backwaters of Butler County. Let's emphasize the person and their leadership qualities and not the school name on their diplomas.
[Note: James was accused by some faculty of being a Nazi sympathizer, though there's little actual evidence of this, and he was the president who started the ROTC program on campus, which was widely criticized at the time.]

And yes, I think we should aim higher than Marshall for our highest Administrators.

Vern Alden was pretty bad. He let Miami play him like a stooge, and at the end of the day, Ohio ended up locked into mandatory open admissions like everyone else except Miami. Gross strategic error on what was probably the most significant issue of his tenure.

Nobody did more for this University during their tenure. I can't believe I'm even allowing myself to have this conversation. No wonder you people all want to pull Administrators from the school ranked #299 on the latest US News and World Report list of National Universities. TOP 75%! (We are #182)
Marshall. LOL. What an embarassment.

Please tell me what great things Alden did. Particularly the ones that are so great that they make up for his epic mishandling of the selective admissions issue. And don't say that he grew enrollment. He was President in the era when the baby boom wave graduated high school and the era of college deferments from Vietnam. An inflatable sex doll could have sat in his chair in the 60s and grown enrollment.

I suspect your lack of esteem for Vernon Alden is, again, due to your loyalty to Marshall, which in the 1960s operated an athletic program that was a criminal enterprise.

I get the impulse to recruit away from Ivies and agree that neither Marshall, Ball State, not Louisville seem like schools to emulate.
But I think the fact that OUs President makes ~450k makes recruiting from the Ivies a tall task. For reference, Harvard's President makes ~$1.1m year. Princeton's President makes $945k. And I understand it, that's pre-bonus and incentive comp. Columbia's president had all in comp of 3.3m in a single year (2012). I suspect you have to go pretty far down the org chart at places like that to get to OU President level comp wise.
I'm not gonna pretend to know the ins and outs of the higher education labor market, but I do wonder how attractive this job is for a talented administrator who is progressing at an elite institution.

I get the impulse to recruit away from Ivies and agree that neither Marshall, Ball State, not Louisville seem like schools to emulate.
But I think the fact that OUs President makes ~450k makes recruiting from the Ivies a tall task. For reference, Harvard's President makes ~$1.1m year. Princeton's President makes $945k.

In yesterday's Dispatch, there was an article about the to$u presidential search. If found this paragraph to be most interesting:
Given the circumstances under which Dr. Johnson resigned I'm not sure why anyone would find this job appealing," Professor Judson L. Jefferson told the board. "However, because academia is replete with careerists and opportunists, administrators will be lined up to interview for this job."
