The Board of Trustees and Presidential Search Committee at Gallaudet University invite applications and nominations for the position of president to succeed Dr. I. King Jordan, who is retiring after eighteen years of outstanding leadership. The new president will assume office in January 2007.
Gallaudet University is the world’s only comprehensive, multipurpose institution of higher education for deaf and hard of hearing individuals. In addition to its undergraduate and graduate academic programs, the University also offers national demonstration programs for elementary and secondary education through the Laurent Clerc National Deaf Education Center. Gallaudet currently enrolls approximately 1,800 post-secondary students who attend classes on the beautiful and vibrant Kendall Green campus in Washington, DC. In addition, last year Gallaudet served more than 48,000 individuals worldwide through conferences, sign language classes, the Office of International Programs and Services, the World Deaf Leadership Program, and summer enrichment programs for the deaf and hard of hearing community of Greater Washington, D.C.
Gallaudet University seeks a president who will provide bold vision in strategically positioning this unique institution as the University adapts to rapid technological advancements, global developments and career opportunities for deaf and hard of hearing individuals. The community is eager to identify a president who will serve as a role model for Gallaudet students and for the deaf and hard of hearing community, just as the Deaf President Now movement accomplished in the last presidential appointment. The successful candidate will possess an earned terminal degree, fluency in American Sign Language and English, and the abilities to: ensure full access and open communication throughout the University, inspire the Gallaudet community to continue to plan and implement strategic goals, provide effective fiscal management and fundraising, and encourage and develop faculty and staff to offer the best programs and services possible for Gallaudet students.
Nominations and expressions of interest should be sent electronically (MS Word) to: gallaudet@academic-search.org
Applications will include a letter of interest, curriculum vitae, and five professional references with e-mail and telephone numbers included. Review of applications will begin immediately, and will continue until the position is filled. Materials received by the end of March will be assured of full consideration.
The search committee is being assisted by:
