Search Process

Dominican University conducted a seven-month nationwide search for its next president. The search process was led by a 15-member committee that included trustees, faculty, staff, sisters, students and alumni. The process brought forward a diverse field of extremely accomplished candidates for the committee to consider. The Board of Trustees approved the appointment of Glena Temple, Ph.D., in a unanimous vote. The national firm Storbeck Search assisted in creating an equitable and inclusive search process.
