Hartnell to have special meeting to discuss presidential search

Hartnell trustees have scheduled a special meeting to discuss the presidential search process at 4:30 p.m. on Wednesday. You may recall I reported last week faculty members have said the process is now tainted because Pamila Fisher, the consultant hired to find presidential candidates, helped place the president of San Joaquin Delta College when he was undergoing troubles at his previous job, and now he's been placed on leave after only nine months on the job.

The meeting appears to be scheduled after some board members expressed concern about the search process, spokeswoman Terri Pyer said. Fisher is not expected to be present, but she may phone in.

The meeting will be held at the usual place, CALL building 208.
