Mount Vernon, WASH. — Skagit Valley College is inviting community members to participate in a series of public forums in April to help shape the search for the college’s next president.
The forums will provide an opportunity for community members to share their perspectives on the opportunities and challenges facing the college, as well as the qualities and experience they would like to see in the next president. Input gathered will help inform the development of the Presidential Profile, a key document used to recruit and evaluate candidates.
"Community voice is essential to the process," said Mari Doerner, SVC Board of Trustees Chair. “We encourage everyone to take part and help us identify the leadership qualities and priorities that will best serve our students and region.”
Community forums will be held in-person and online at the following dates and locations:
Whidbey Island Campus
5:30-6:30 p.m., April 14
Oak Hall, Room A306
Mount Vernon Campus
5:30-6:30 p.m., April 15
Multipurpose Room, Knutzen Cardinal Center
Marine Technology Center, Anacortes
5:30-6:30 p.m., April 16
Classroom off the lobby
Community members are welcome to attend any session. All forums will have a zoom option if you cannot attend in person. Zoom link here or connect to Zoom using the Meeting ID: 741 030 7556 and Passcode: 125621.
For those unable to attend in person, an online option to provide input will be available on April 14 on the Presidential Search website.
Feedback gathered through these forums will play an important role in shaping the search process as the college prepares to recruit candidates later this spring.
