Presidential Search Committee | USF Board of Trustees | University of South Florida

The USF Presidential Search Committee was appointed by USF Board of Trustees Chair Will Weatherford on Feb. 20, 2025.

The search committee’s membership and process follow Board of Governors Regulation 1.002: Presidential Search and Selection and Section 1004.098, Florida Statutes. The process will include stakeholder input; the development of a position profile; marketing of the position; and identifying and screening the most qualified candidates. The committee will then recommend an unranked list of finalists to the Board of Trustees for consideration.

The search process will ensure alignment to the university’s mission and vision that have guided USF's sustained trajectory of success. The next president will expand upon the university’s momentum, providing leadership toward achieving the institution’s goals and aspirations.
