UMass begins hunt for next flagship campus Chancellor
There is about a year until Kumble Subbaswamy steps down as chancellor of the University of Massachusetts Amherst, but the group searching for his successor began its work Tuesday as top UMass officials highlighted how important it is to get the selection right given the challenges facing higher education generally. Subbaswamy announced last month that he plans to retire at the end of June 2023 and the UMass Board of Trustees launched a global search for his successor, led by Trustee Victor Woolridge, a UMass Amherst alumnus and current chair of the UMass Building Authority.
