Candidates for Development and University Relations VP to hold open forums

Candidates for CSU Vice President for Development and University

Relations position will interact with students and staff Friday

afternoon.

“This is a key leadership position for the university,” said

Lance Perryman, dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine and

Biomedical Sciences and head of the search committee. “The search

committee has identified three candidates who we believe are very

well qualified for this position and have invited them to campus

for open interviews.”

The search committee hosted three different candidates in

December 2003, none of which were selected for the position.

“It’s a very important job,” said Tom Milligan, spokesperson for

CSU and member of the search committee. “If you look at what’s

going on in higher education, it’s critically important that

Colorado State continues to build and serve private support.”

The person in this position is responsible for fundraising,

alumni relations, communications, marketing and public

relations.
