BOZEMAN — There will soon to be a big change in leadership at Montana State University.
The search for a new president continues at MSU following the retirement of President Waded Cruzado.
Watch the story here:
Dillion Baroy, a freshman at MSU, spoke about the new change in leadership at the university.
“I'm pretty new to MSU, but I've heard Ms. Cruzado is doing great here and she's going on a new adventure in her life, which is good for her, and I'm excited for what the new president can bring,” said Baroy.
Sillas Savoia, also a freshman, hopes the new president will carry on Cruzado's legacy.
“I don't want to see anything fall backwards. I'd like to see President Cruzado’s hard work be worked upon further,” said Savoia.
Savoia and her father David Joseph came from Illinois to tour the campus and also knew about the candidates being considered for the new role.
“We heard a lot of good things about the outgoing president, so hopefully it'll continue. Obviously, it's a big consideration,” said Joseph.
Interviews for the two candidates begin Tuesday. Faculty, staff, students, and alumni are encouraged to participate in the events and open forum. You can find more information and event schedules at the Montana State University Presidential Search website.
