University of Iowa officials have announced they will extend the search for the next dean of the Tippie College of Business to allow for on-campus visits in the fall, when it’s hoped that the COVID-19 pandemic will have subsided, the Corridor Business Journal reported. Although a search committee had narrowed its list to three finalists, all of whom participated in virtual campus visits, the committee later decided in-person visits would be preferable. Executive Vice President and Provost Montse Fuentes said that in addition to in-person visits in the fall, she would continue working to attract a diverse pool of candidates, suggesting UI might not be satisfied with its list of finalists. The people invited in fall “may include the candidates who participated in virtual campus visits this spring,” UI Assistant Vice President for External Relations Jeneane Beck told the Daily Iowan.
