Presidential Search
The University of Northern Colorado is continuing the presidential search process following President Feinstein’s announcement that he will step down on August 1, 2026. The following provides an update on the progress of the search.
Since its formation, the Presidential Search Advisory Committee has been actively engaged in advancing the search with intention and focus. In partnership with Isaacson, Miller, the committee has gathered input from across the campus community and worked to shape a leadership profile aligned with UNC’s priorities and future direction.
Based on this work, the committee has finalized a Presidential Leadership Profile that outlines the priorities, needs, and aspirations of the University of Northern Colorado. The profile was recommended by the committee and formally approved by the Board of Trustees at its June 12 meeting. This document will guide the recruitment and evaluation of candidates as the search moves forward.
The Presidential Search Advisory Committee includes representatives from across the UNC community and key stakeholder groups. Additional information about the committee, including membership and roles, is available on the PSAC committee page.
Presidential Leadership Profile
The Presidential Leadership Profile highlights the University of Northern Colorado’s strengths, institutional priorities, and the opportunities and challenges that will shape its next chapter. For best consideration, please apply by August 31, 2026.
