Grant Writer & Administrator Candidate Meet & Greet

I am delighted to announce the four candidates for the Grant Writer and Administrator position.   Given the nature and past practice with MAPE positions including the Grant Writer and Administrator position, there will not be open forums for these candidates.  However, the campus community is invited to attend an informal 30-minute Meet and Greet session with each candidate.  The dates and zoom links for you to meet and greet with each candidate are provided below.  There will also be an opportunity for you to provide feedback through a Qualtrics survey if you so choose after you meet with each candidate.  I greatly appreciate your participation in the search process.
