Free the IU 25!

The search for a new provost is on, to replace Michael McRobbie when he assumes the presidency of IU on July 1. Per Fred Cate, professor of law and chair of the search committee, 25 viable candidates have been nominated.

At on open forum this week, Prof. Cate conceded that secrecy will be impossible, especially regarding the group of 5 (or 6 or 7...) that the committee selects for interviews. However, he was adamant that the search committee members won't be the source of any leaks.

Since this is an internal search and only current, tenured faculty members are eligible, the latest game craze to sweep campus is this: Name the 25!
