Dear Colleagues,

I am happy to share that we will host four finalists on the UWM campus for the position of Vice Provost for Academic Affairs beginning next week. Details about the position, the candidates, campus visits, and Q&A open forums are available on the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs search website. Access to finalist CVs will require logging in with UWM credentials.

Open forum sessions, including the Q&A, will be hybrid. The Teams live event links are posted on the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs search website. Audience members may ask live (in-person or virtual) questions of the candidates during these Q&A sessions. The candidates and open forum details are listed below.

Confidential surveys to gather feedback on each finalist will be available on the VPAA search website, candidates’ information page, by the start of the visits. Surveys will close on Tuesday, May 28 at 11:45 p.m. Feedback will be collected and presented to me in a non-identifying format for my review and consideration.

I wish to thank the Search Committee, chaired by Prasenjit Guptasarma, for service to the university and for producing a strong pool of candidates. We also extend thanks to Human Resources staff member, Zoe Carballido, who has been instrumental in managing logistics throughout this search process.

With appreciation,

Andrew P. Daire, PhD
Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs
