It's absolutely imperative that YOU get involved. Start by attending one of the upcoming sessions on campus, hosted by the search and screen committee. Think about nontraditional candidates-- consider those who've worked hard to take leadership roles as faculty in public higher education, for example, but not yet worked as a high-level administrator. Think outside the typical research university model. Think outside of the usual corporate models.
Sift and winnow. Others already are. Word reached me late last week that some people are thinking "nontraditional" indeed, and seeking to follow the lead of Indiana by bringing this guy into the mix. Does Tommy meet your definition of a top-notch UW-Madison chancellor? If not, what do you plan to do about it?
Think. Act. Get involved. Don't sit still and wait for it to simply "happen" to us. Please.
