Friday’s presentation, which began at 3:30 p.m. was by in-house candidate and current interim chancellor Laura Clark who also holds the position of Vice Chancellor for Academics. After her talk, which consisted of her assessment of the institution’s recent past and future opportunities, attendees asked questions.  

On Monday, November 17th, in the same place and again at 3:30, Ricky Tompkins, a Hope native who is Vice President for Technical and Workforce Development at North Arkansas College will give his talk.

On Tuesday, Steve Rook, current Chancellor of Arkansas State University Three Rivers, will give his presentation.

When the presentations are complete, SWARK.Today will publish a story next week about the content of the talks by the three candidates.
