The University of Michigan Flint Chancellor Search Advisory Committee (UMFCSAC) is engaged to assist and advise the President in conducting a search to fill the position of Chancellor of the University of Michigan–Flint.

With the assistance of a qualified search consultant the UMFCSAC is charged with:

• Conducting a national search for candidates, soliciting and considering both external and internal prospects, and building a pool of highly qualified candidates.
• Making a concerted effort to meet federal and the institution’s affirmative action goals with respect to this position and to develop as diverse a pool as possible.
• Reviewing the candidate pool, conducting preliminary interviews and advising the President of a final set of recommended candidates for her consideration, and assisting the president in recruiting efforts as required.
• Apprising the President of progress, through the committee chair and staff liaison.
• Meeting with the President to discuss final recommendations as soon as possible, consistent with identifying, recruiting, and reviewing the most highly qualified candidates.

The work of the UMFCSAC will be supported by the President’s liaison and staff member from the Flint Campus. The committee will have at its disposal such resources as are reasonably required to meet the goals of the search in a timely manner.
