Thanks in large part to the range of thoughtful stakeholder input throughout the past 15+ months of the College’s presidential search process, Ramapo College generated an informative needs assessment, advanced a compelling position profile, and launched a strategic recruitment strategy to help attract its next president.
Our recruitment effort yielded a diverse pool of 103 candidates. The 14 voting members of the Search Committee were tasked with evaluating all 103 applicants against the leadership opportunities, qualifications, and preferred attributes noted in the position profile. Following the evaluations, the Search Committee identified an unranked list of semifinalists. During the month of November 2020, the Search Committee conducted nine virtual semifinalist interviews.
In December 2020, the Search Committee met and unanimously and enthusiastically recommended four finalists*, unranked, to the Board of Trustees for consideration as Ramapo College’s fifth president.
*On 2/2/21 the College was advised that one of the four finalists withdrew from the search.

The Search Committee is pleased to share that finalist “visits” will take place over the course of two days each in early/mid February. These “visits” will be entirely virtual and will feature a town hall/presentation forum as well as a series of meetings with a range of stakeholders. The meetings will provide opportunity for College stakeholders to get to know the candidates and for the candidates to get to know the Ramapo community. Participation is encouraged. Recordings of the town hall/presentations will be made available to members of the College who are unavailable to attend these forums. Other meetings will not be recorded.
Following each finalist’s “visit”, members of the College are asked to complete the Post-visit Evaluations linked to above. The evaluations solicit community members’ overall assessment of and perspectives on the finalist. Evaluation responses will not be attributable. The responses will be provided to the Board of Trustees.
The responsibility to select and appoint Ramapo College’s fifth president rests with the Board of Trustees. Following the virtual visits and the review of survey responses, the Board of Trustees will notice and convene an executive (closed) session meeting to discuss the finalists. It is expected that within a week thereafter, the Board of Trustees will again notice and convene an executive (closed) session meeting to further deliberate and then move into a public (open) session meeting to likely announce and advance the appointment of the College’s fifth president.
Additional information regarding the fiduciary duties and statutory responsibility of the Board of Trustees is available at www.ramapo.edu/board.
