RCC Presidential Finalist Forum

Rogue Community College Announces Presidential Finalists Open Forum Schedule
The Board of Education of Rogue Community College (RCC) recently announced the names of the five education professionals who have been selected as finalists in the search for the next president of RCC. Members of the public are invited to meet the candidates, Dr. Michael Holtzclaw, Dr. Kirsten Jones, Dr. Tammy Robinson, Dr. Michelle Schutt and Dr. Randy Weber, as they participate in two upcoming in-person public forums.  Biographies of each candidate may be viewed in full on the RCC presidential search website at: roguecc.edu/PresidentialSearch/presidentFinalists.asp
All five finalists have confirmed their continued interest in the position and each will be visiting Rogue Community College the week of March 7 to March 11 for additional interviews and campus tours.  Each candidate will also speak during public forums at both the Redwood campus in Grants Pass and the Table Rock Campus in White City. The forums will be open to RCC students, staff, faculty and community members.
Each finalist will present a 15- to 20-minute talk on the topic: ‘What are some current issues or trends with community colleges that RCC should anticipate and prepare for to best serve our community and our students?’ Each presentation will be followed by a question and answer session with the candidate.
For those unable to attend the in-person forums, recordings will be made available on the RCC Presidential Search webpage at the end of each day. An opportunity to provide prompt feedback to the Board will also be available on RCC’s Presidential Search webpage.
A 20-member Presidential Search Advisory Committee – a diverse group made up of Board members, students, faculty, staff, and local community members– recommended the finalists to the RCC Board of Education after a nation-wide search.
