An email was sent out announcing the selection of Academic Search as the firm facilitating the search for Texas Wesleyan University's next president and extended an invitation to attend multiple different listening sessions this week.

The listening sessions will be Tuesday, Feb. 21 in the Martin Center Ballrooms A&B. We encourage members of our TXWES community top join us in person but also understand that may not be an option for everyone, so sessions will be streamed live via Zoom. We hope you will join us at one of the following sessions:

  • 12:30-1:30 p.m. — Faculty Listening Session
  • 1:30-2:30 p.m. — Staff Listening Session
  • 2:30-3:30 p.m. — Student Listening Session
  • 4:30-5:30 p.m. — Open Communication Session / Alumni

If you're unable to join us in person, click here to join the webinar.

Our consultants from Academic Search will be on campus to learn as much as possible about the TXWES community. Below are some questions to consider as you prepare to engage with Academic Search.

  • What are the core values and characteristics of TXWES?
  • What do you see as the priorities of our next president?
  • What opportunities do you see for the next president over the next 7-10 years?
  • What are the immediate challenges facing the next president?
  • What would draw someone to the opportunity?
  • What would ensure the success of our next president?

Based on their research and the conversations and feedback from our campus community, the consultants will prepare a profile describing the key institutional needs and priorities, as well as a set of desired characteristics and talents of the next president. These will be made available to the campus community and potential candidates early next month.

We look forward to engaging with and hearing from you over the course of selecting our 21st President. If you have any thoughts, comments or questions regarding the search, please visit the presidential search website or email presidentialsearch@txwes.edu.
