The national search firm hired by Eastern’s Board of Trustees will cost the university $50,000. BOT Chair Susan Gilpin said it is a wise decision. “This will be money well spent for all the knowledge, experience and work that they will add to the process,” she said. The Board of Trustees Monday hired an executive search firm to assist the university in the hiring of Eastern’s ninth president. Heidrick and Struggles, executive search consultants from Washington, D.C., will help the university with the identification of potential candidates for the presidential position and will assist an 11-member campus presidential search committee in evaluating and recruiting candidates, Gilpin said. ANNA BETZELBERGER/Staff photographer Gilpin said the BOT is excited to be Jill Randolph, a senior speech pathology major, holds the hand of Monique Cook-Bey, a senior African American Studies working with the firm. major, during a moment of silence at the prayer vigil for Jay McRae in the South Quad Wednesday afternoon. “Heidrick and Struggles is one of the premier search firms in the field,” Gilpin said. “We want to ensure that we get the best president for Eastern.
