All community town halls will be conducted virtually via Zoom, and registration is required. The four finalists will also each meet in sessions with Colorado Law students; faculty; staff; advancement personnel; student leaders; assistant and associate deans; the provost; the dean; and the search committee.
Following each community town hall, attendees will have the opportunity to submit formal input for each candidate via a web survey that registrants will receive via email.
Moore welcomes additional feedback on the finalists at vcaa@colorado.edu from Thursday, Feb. 18, through close of business on Monday, Feb. 22. Moore will review all feedback and is expected to invite the top candidates for additional interviews with campus leadership. His goal is to name a new dean by the end of the spring semester.
The dean is the chief academic and administrative officer of Colorado Law and a member of the provost’s leadership team, providing leadership, vision and management for the college. The post also collaborates with faculty, staff and campus leadership to advance Boulder’s goals and mission.
