(Amherst, MA) The current UMass Chancellor Kumble Subbaswamy will be retiring this June and the nationwide search for a new Chancellor at UMass has been narrowed down to two finalists.
One of the finalists is Javier Reyes, the current interim Chancellor at the University of Illinois Chicago. The second finalist is Paul Tikalsky, the Dean of the College of Engineering, Architecture & Technology at Oklahoma State University. The candidates will visit the campus in the coming weeks to meet with students, faculty, staff, and the community.
