Lend your voice to the search for College of Lake County's (CLC) next leader. Community members are encouraged to provide input on the college's presidential search through public forums Friday, Aug. 21.

Interested persons can attend an in-person public forum at any of CLC’s three campuses. Forums will be held from 9-10 a.m., 11 a.m. to noon and 2-3 p.m. No RSVP is needed.

Each public forum will be held simultaneously via videoconference across all three campuses. They will be held in room A013 at the Grayslake Campus, room 34-511 at the Lakeshore Campus and room V328 at the Southlake Campus.

A brief electronic survey is available for those unable to attend. Responses are anonymous. Survey feedback must be submitted by 6 p.m. Aug. 24.

The first step in this search is the development of a presidential profile, which will be compiled by integrating the responses elicited through the public forums and responses to the survey.

Visit the CLC website for more information about the search, including its timeline.
