Presidential Search

November 13, 2024

Dear Members of the Stony Brook University Community,

I am writing to provide an update on the search for Stony Brook's next president.

The Search Committee met at the end of September to receive its charge from Chancellor John King. The team from Spencer Stuart, our search firm, also presented the search timeline and gathered input from committee members and other SBU stakeholders on the key qualities and leadership style desired in the next president. A copy of the Position and Candidate Specification is available on the Presidential Search website.

I am pleased to report a strong response so far from potential candidates. After reviewing these candidates at our meeting in late October, the committee selected an initial slate to invite for in-person interviews, which will take place in early December. We are meeting again next week to review some additional candidates as well.

The committee looks forward to meeting with the candidates, and I will continue to keep you informed as the search progresses.

Sincerely,

Kevin Law
Chair, Presidential Search Committee
Chair, Stony Brook Council
