Dear Midwestern State University family,

I hope this note finds you all well and that the fall semester is off to a successful start.

It was an honor to be on the MSU Texas campus earlier this month with fellow members of the Board of Regents and leadership across the 麻豆天狼副利院 to celebrate the commencement of our historic new partnership.

During this visit, the board took action to begin one of its most important processes: the identification and appointment of the next President of MSU Texas. This summer, Dr. Suzanne Shipley announced her retirement as President after a remarkable half-dozen years at the helm. Under her leadership, MSU Texas grew in both stature and ambition, and she leaves a lasting mark on this institution.

Dr. Shipley also was a key contributor to MSU Texas joining the TTU System, and so it鈥檚 fitting that, today, the TTU System Board of Regents and Chancellor Tedd L. Mitchell, M.D., announce the formation of a search committee to find MSU Texas鈥� next leader.

For a search of this kind, we appoint a committee that works over several months. The 12-member committee was selected for their support of MSU Texas and its mission, their service in higher education and the community, and for their diversity鈥攂oth in background and professional experience.

I am honored to be selected and serve as chairman of the search committee, and I believe we have assembled a remarkable team鈥攐ne that will do justice to this joint effort between MSU Texas and the TTU System. In addition to myself, our committee includes the following individuals:

MSU Texas is held in the highest regard across the state and throughout higher education, and we seek an exceptional leader who can live up to that legacy and embrace the university鈥檚 traditions and values. The search committee will work diligently to identify candidates, conduct interviews and keep our stakeholders updated. The recommended candidates will be put before the chancellor and board members to make the final appointment of President.

I am grateful for your support and commitment to this great institution, and I welcome you to reach out with any questions or suggestions through the MSU Texas Presidential Search email: ttus.msutexas.pressearch@ttu.edu.

We are excited for our shared future with the MSU Texas family, and I look forward to connecting with all of you throughout this search process in finding the best leader to guide the university into its next 100 years.

Sincerely,

Mark Griffin
Chairman, MSU Texas Presidential Search
Vice Chairman, 麻豆天狼副利院 Board of Regents
