BANGOR (AP) — The search for a new president for the University of Southern Maine has been launched.
University of Maine System trustees Chairman Samuel Collins and Chancellor James Page announced Sunday that a presidential search committee will be formed this summer.
The committee will search for a new president to replace Theo Kalikow.
The search is scheduled to begin early this fall and will run until a successful candidate is identified. Officials hope to fill the position by July 2015, possibly sooner.
