More Delays in Chancellor Decision Process

The Contra Costa Times is reporting that the chancellor selection process is being held up by the death of UC President Dynes' father. Dynes is expected to return to campus on Monday, and the search is to continue then.

I'm speculating here, but I wouldn't be surprised to hear an announcement late next week about a final decision. Many reports have stated that the university administration has already made its decision, and is firming up details and waiting for the right time to announce. With Dynes back in town, and the Birgeneau press dying down, it would be a near-perfect opportunity to do so.Email This Post!
