Eastern Michigan University has begun the search for the replacement for John Fallon, who, well you know why he's gone, it's well documented.
The search team is made up of the following:
Committee co-chairs are: Roy Wilbanks, vice chair, Board of Regents and Jim Stapleton, Board of Regents. Other representatives are Glenda Price, retired president of Marygrove College in Detroit; Winifred Garrett, director of human resources, Washtenaw Intermediate School District; Russ Larson, president, Faculty Council; Kirk Profit, director, Governmental Consulting Services; Bert Greene, president, Emeritus Faculty Association; Robert Neely, associate provost and associate vice president for research at EMU; Eric Brown, president-elect of the EMU Alumni Association; William Morris, past president, EMU Foundation; Greg Jones, student body president; and James Carroll, associate professor, physics, representing the American Association of University Professors (AAUP).
It's a good group and should be supported. Sure we could all want more alumni or students on the search team but YCD recognizes many of these names, and while YCD may not know them personally we know they have good reputations and can be trusted.
We also wish them luck as a new President will help EMU move forward and away from the events of last year.

I don't know what all the fuss is about. They should just give Loppnow the job. I know him and his wife and they are good people. He would never embarrass the univeristy.
Seems like they are just determined to waste yet more money.
Loppnow would be a fine choice. I do think the U needs someone familiar with Ypsi. Maybe not an outsider this time...
