The failed search for a new University of Minnesota-Duluth chancellor cost $166,000. University of Minnesota President Joan Gabel announced on Monday that none of the three finalists invited for interviews got the job. The university began a national search for a new Duluth chancellor in November after Lendley Black announced his retirement after 12 years leading the campus. The university hired search firm Korn Ferry, paying the firm $166,000 to consult. The finalist included a vice chancellor from the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, a provost from California State University-Chico and an officer with the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation. Gabel didn’t explain in her announcement why no finalist was selected.
