President Michael Schill is inviting the campus and community to his first all-campus address at 11 a.m. Nov. 10 in the EMU ballroom.

Once confirmed by the Oregon Legislature, freshman accounting major Will Paustian will serve through June 30, 2017.
Candidate names and full interview schedules will be released Monday; additional candidate visits will be Nov. 10-11 and Nov. 19-20.
