Proud2BAHoosier Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 Saw that in our Evansville newspaper this morning. Should make a lot of IU folks happy? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iuthruandthru Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 Looks like the new president has been selected. As I expected it appears to be external as they specifically stated they brought in a diverse group of “external” candidates. They are negotiating with the final candidate now. I thought they would have already done all this and announced the new president by today but doesn’t sound like it will be much longer. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobSaccamanno Posted April 9, 2021 Report Share Posted April 9, 2021 (edited) Thanks for keeping us updated. Much appreciated. Was Lauren Robel in the mix? I’ve heard her name in the past. Maybe @dbmhoosier has insight there. I had her as a law professor many years ago. I think it was for legal writing but my memory could be off.

IU247 Posted April 10, 2021 Report Share Posted April 10, 2021 (edited) https://www.idsnews.com/article/2021/04/search-for-new-iu-president-final-stages IU announced the search for a new president is in its final stages, according to a press release. The IU Board of Trustees authorized four trustees to begin negotiations for a contract with a final candidate. The candidate has not yet been named. The Board of Trustees said it anticipates announcing the new president this month, who will take over for outgoing President Michael McRobbie on July 1. The board has been searching for a replacement for President McRobbie since he announced his retirement in August 2020.

She travels with the Kennesaw State football team and asks for a stat sheet at halftime. She's also had stops at some big sports schools. I'd say she's an upgrade 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DunkinDipo Posted April 16, 2021 Report Share Posted April 16, 2021 It looks like things are finally rolling again for IUBB. A new AD and coach who absolutely love IU and now a President that appreciates and understands the importance of athletics. Seems like she will put a focus on athletic excellence as well as academic. This is very encouraging and the future is bright guys! Hopefully the days of posters claiming incompetence from our administration are over! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
