Listening sessions are scheduled Monday and Tuesday, Oct. 6-7, for the University of Wyoming community and the public to provide input on the desired qualifications and characteristics of a new UW president.

In addition to being an opportunity to provide input on the desired qualifications and characteristics of the next president, the listening sessions and an online survey are intended to seek input on the challenges and opportunities UW’s next leader will face. The survey is posted at www.uwyo.edu/presidential-search, which will be updated regularly as the search unfolds. The survey is open through 5 p.m. Friday, Oct. 10.

The first is Monday, Oct. 6, from 5-6 p.m., in person at the Marian H. Rochelle Gateway Center and online at https://uwyo.zoom.us/j/98211573472.
