The Daily Dartmouth has a story about the change at the top of the athletic administration with the retirement of Josie Harper as athletic director and Bob Ceplikas taking over as interim AD. The story in the D has this to say about how Dean of the College Tom Crady envisions the search going:
Crady said that the search will be a “fairly transparent process,” one in which potential candidates would have the opportunity to give presentations on campus and speak to the public about their plans for Dartmouth athletics.Green Alert Take: Having covered quite a few Dartmouth searches (including one for for athletic director) that would represent a radical but welcome departure.
The story also has this to say:
Crady neither confirmed nor denied whether Ceplikas or head football coach Buddy Teevens ’79 are prospects, adding that “it would be inappropriate to speculate about who the candidates may be” and that any qualified applicants would be considered for the position.Discuss among yourselves.
The D also has an interview with Jim Yong Kim, who begins his tenure as president on Wednesday. From that story:
Kim said he is eager to learn more about athletics at Dartmouth and added that he has already purchased a Dartmouth football tie, as well as a Dartmouth football jersey emblazoned with his high school number.
Kim himself has an extensive background in athletics, he said, including participation in football, basketball, soccer, golf and club volleyball at Brown.
