Members of the Board Search Committee leading the search for the next Chancellor of The University of Mississippi will hear from constituency groups in Campus Listening Sessions on Thursday, August 27 at the University of Mississippi Campus in Oxford. The discussions will center on the qualities and qualifications stakeholders believe the next institutional executive officer should possess.

The Board of Trustees has also posted an Online Listening Session to gain additional feedback. The online survey is available through August 27.

The online survey is part of the Chancellor Search website. The Chancellor Search website provides a wealth of information on the search, including the latest news, frequently asked questions and search progress. It was recently redesigned to be more user-friendly and provide the information in a more intuitive format.
