Not by any stretch. Worthen has several more years I’d imagine.

Average tenure is 7 years, that was a precedent set by Oaks

Just like head football coaches, who are the viable candidates?

It may hurt his chances if he shows up to interview with a mullet. Blending in at CCU has its price

I could see them hiring a woman. It's not a priesthood calling afterall.

And the woman President of BYU couldn't go on to become the general RS pres

That is not my assumption at all. I'd be all for a female BYU president, but the

I don't know if Dean of Marriot school of business to BYU pres is a big jump but

She would be an excellent university president

You could make a case for Astrid Tuminez. She’s the current president of UVU

Sure... there have been women deans. I don't think there's a great candidate yet

Sherri Dew?

Why would she be qualified to run a university?

runnincoug

10/27/21 9:03am

Just throwing out a woman name! Didn't say she was qualified.

Kilgruman

10/27/21 11:49am

That's how we got Kamala as our VP. That's a bad way to find candidates

It also undermines women by tokenizing them by just their gender. There are some

No serious & ambitious woman (or man) should want a position they didn't earn & comes w/ a pat on the head.

President Worthen is the best President BYU has had since Lee. Especially for
