The A&T search
The A&T chancellor search is down to two finalists whose names have been submitted to UNC President Erskine Bowles, Joe Killian reports.
The good news about this development is that the chancellor search committee has accomplished the winnowing processes in a relatively short time frame.
The bad news is we don't know who the finalists are. Our local UNC schools continue to insist on revealing absolutely nothing until the new chancellor is announced.
That deprives the public and the university community of any input except at the very beginning of the search, when they can only think in abstract terms of the qualities they want in the school's next leader.
Let's also hope the speed of the process hasn't outpaced the quality. This is a very critical selection at a critical time in A&T's history.
(I hope one of the finalists is Harold Martin.)
