All four finalists for vice president for research and innovation will make campus visits this month into early March to meet with the campus community.

Havazelet taught creative writing at the UO since 1999 and is remembered as 'firey, brillian, unstinting (and) mercurial' by faculty colleagues.

During meetings Thursday and Friday, trustees also will hear about resource realignment, leadership searches and capital planning efforts.

An outstanding professional adviser and an oustanding faculty adviser will be selected and honored at a campus ceremony in May.

The reception will be an opportunity to hear from campus leaders about the need for candidates and volunteers for the Senate and committees.
