Announcement: College of Fine Arts Dean Search Stakeholder Meetings
On February 26, 2018, members of the College of Fine Arts Dean Search Committee, Search Committee Chair Dean Clark, and Mr. Alberto Pimentel of Storbeck/Pimentel & Associates will host a series of meetings with key College of Fine Arts stakeholders to discuss the Dean search and gather information. This is an opportunity for various campus and community constituents to share their thoughts and comments regarding the qualities and characteristics sought in the new Dean. Information gathered from these sessions will be incorporated in the position announcement and used by the committee to develop the criteria by which candidates will be evaluated.
The Search Committee is most interested in exploring the following questions:
1. Based on your experience at Florida State University, how would you describe the short and long term challenges and opportunities facing the College of Fine Arts and the next dean?
2. Given the opportunities and challenges you have identified, what professional experience and qualifications must the successful candidate possess? What personal qualities must he/she have in order to be successful at FSU?
3. What are the immediate initiatives that the Dean must be aware of and embrace?
4. Many candidates who are not fully aware of Tallahassee or the College of Fine Arts will be curious to learn about the College and the region. What are the key attributes (selling points) of the University, the College of Fine Arts, and the surrounding region that could be attractive to potential candidates?
Each constituent group is scheduled to meet with the Search Committee for 30-45 minutes. The attached schedule references the schedule times for each group’s section.
Because there are many constituents with whom we look forward to meeting, we must adhere to our schedule. Therefore, it would be helpful if you prepare your thoughts and comments prior to the meeting. Thank you for your assistance and we look forward to hearing from you on February 26, 2018 at the Art & Design Library, located in the William Johnston Building, Room 2020.
Your input is very important to us. If you are unable to attend the session or did not receive an invitation, please access the link below to submit any comments electronically.
