PCC board wants community input for president's search
Photos and story by James Hill
The board of directors of Portland Community College has hired the national Association of Community College Trustees to coordinate the search for PCC’s next president. Current President Daniel F. Moriarty, who has been with the college since 1986, announced his retirement effective Sept. 2001. The PCC board is seeking community input to help with the selection process. The board will hold a community forum for public comment on the challenges and opportunities that lay ahead for PCC and desirable characteristics sought in a new president. The forum is set for Tuesday, November 28, from 5:30-6:30 p.m. at the Sylvania Campus, 12000 S.W. 49th Ave. in Room 107 of the ST Building. Those who wish to comment but are unable to attend the forum can contact Neal Naigus, Community Relations Manager, Portland Community College, P.O. Box 19000, Portland, OR 97280 or e-mail him, nnaigus@pcc.edu. In addition, community members interested in an appointment to the board’s Presidential Search Committee can contact Neal Naigus, as well.
