BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — A search committee has been formed to find the next chancellor of Northwest Louisiana Technical Community College in Minden, which also has extension campuses in Mansfield and Shreveport.
The Louisiana Community and Technical College System said Friday that Timothy W. Hardy, a member of the system's Board of Supervisors, will chair the 12-member committee. The panel also includes board members Tari Bradford and Paul Price as well as Cheyanne Cedars, the president of the Student Government Association at the main campus.
The committee is looking to replace Chancellor Earl Meador, who has led the school since June 2017. He announced in February that he is stepping down to spend more time with his family.
Meador led the college through a scheduling redesign which provided greater flexibility and more opportunities for students to enroll in classes. He also led the college through the process of becoming a comprehensive technical community college, and he improved the college’s community engagement, the college said.
The Association of Community College Trustees, a non-profit organization, will assist the board in its search. There's no timeline on when a replacement will be named.
