The finalists represent college leadership from within the District and from the states of California and New Jersey. The candidates will be interviewed by members of the Board of Trustees on Tuesday, March 5. Faculty, staff, students, and the community will have an opportunity to meet each candidate during open forums in Gillette and Sheridan on Monday, March 4.

“We had an extremely talented pool of candidates,” said Norleen Healy, Board Chair. “Our search committee worked very hard to select a strong slate of finalists and I am pleased with the results.”

The finalists, in alphabetical order, are Dr. Leah Barrett, Northern Wyoming Community College District Vice President of Student Affairs; Dr. Jon Connolly, Sussex County Community College President; Dr. Walter Tribley, Monterey Peninsula College President.
