Presidential search reaches final stages

The search for Beloit College’s 12th president is intensifying, with the selection process entering its most rigorous phase and candidates advancing as finalists.

In a March 20 email, Trustee and chair of the search committee Nina Weissberg’84 shared updates and thanked the college community and members of the search committee for their dedication to the important work of identifying the college’s next president.

This spring, the committee will recommend one candidate to the Board of Trustees.

In October, 11th College President Scott Bierman announced his plans to retire in June after 14 years of service.

Poet Lorine Niedecker may be one of Beloit’s — and modern literature’s — best-kept secrets. She was a prolific and reclusive writer, crafting sparse, nature-based poems in her one-room cabin alongside Lake Koshkonong.

Advocates like the Friends of Lorine Niedecker — a Fort Atkinson-based nonprofit — as well as Beloit College Archivist Emeritus Fred Burwell’86 and Professor of English Chris Fink are working to raise awareness of her work.
