A search committee has been appointed by SIU President Randy Dunn in order to find the university’s next Chancellor.

The committee will be co-chaired by Carl Flowers, Director of the university’s rehabilitation institute, and Meera Komarraju, Professor of Psychology, and Chair of the Psychology Department.

The committee is looking for a replacement for former Interim Chancellor Paul Sarvela, who unexpectedly passed away in November.

The Chancellor’s duties are currently being fulfilled by President Dunn.
