Memo # U2324-072
20 Nov 2023
TO:
The Higher Education Community
SUBJECT:
Deanship of the Gokongwei Brothers School of Education and Learning Design
The term of Fr Johnny C Go SJ, Dean of the Gokongwei Brothers School of Education and Learning Design (GBSEALD), ends after SY 2023-2024. I write the Higher Education community to help me form a Search Committee for the Dean of the GBSEALD for a 3-year term (SY 2024-2025 to SY 2026-2027) who will deliberate and discern about GBSEALD’s leadership, priorities, and needs, and nominate to my office possible names for its deanship.
It would be good for the Higher Education Community to go through a process of obtaining:
- Nominations for a Search Committee and
- Feedback along the following lines:
- What are the priority needs and expectations of the GBSEALD at this time?
- What would be the qualities most important for the Dean to possess to enable the GBSEALD to respond to these needs and expectations?
- Who might be possible candidates for the GBSEALD Dean?
I would appreciate it if the nominations for the members of the Search Committee and feedback could be submitted to the Office of the Vice President for Higher Education (vp.highereducation@ateneo.edu) on or before Wednesday, 29 November 2023.
I shall then appoint the Search Committee which will go through the next steps of the process:
- Creating a list of possible candidates;
- Interviewing the candidates and resource persons;
- Recommending three possible names to the President
The target is for the Search Committee to finish its report by mid-January 2024. This will give me ample time to make my recommendation to the Board at its meeting on 3 February 2024. A decision by the first week of February 2024 will ensure better transition in school leadership.
Thank you.
