The University of Idaho’s 19th president will speak to campus Thursday after being named by the Idaho State Board of Education.
The State Board will select the president at its 10 a.m. meeting Thursday morning. The next president will speak before campus 10:30 a.m. in the Administration Building Auditorium after being named.
Their remarks will also be live-streamed at uidaho.edu/live.
The four candidates in the running are as follows:
• Christopher Callahan, founding dean of the Walter Cronkite School of Journalism and Mass Communication at Arizona State University
• Diane Chase, executive vice president and provost of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.
• Scott Green, global chief operating officer and financial office at Hogan Lovells, an international Law Firm

A fifth candidate, Paul Tikalsky, previously withdrew from consideration. He is the dean of the College of Engineering, Architecture and Technology at Oklahoma State University.
The Board previously announced it would not renew UI president Chuck Staben’s contract after it expires June 15.
