Turner College Dean Search Update, 10/07/2026

A check last night of The Chronicle of Higher Education's job posting indicated that the Turner College's advertisement for a new dean remains forthcoming. In the meantime, two additional institutions have joined the group of colleges and universities seeking a new business school dean. As shown below, these are the University of Rochester and the University of Connecticut. The Simon Business School at Rochester offers the 34th-ranked MBA program in the U.S. according to U.S. News & World Report. The University of Connecticut's undergraduate business programs rank 47th in the U.S. according to the same source, while its online graduate programs (outside of the MBA) rank among the top 12 in the country.


The Turner College ad is also yet to appear in Inside Higher Ed, which currently lists only the Schmidthorst College of Business at Bowling Green State University as seeking a new business dean. Lastly, ad placement is still yet to occur in HigherEdJobs, another outlet recently approved by CSU Provost Dustin Anderson. This site offers the largest group of business schools in search of a new dean, including those at the University of Missouri - Kansas City, Langston University, Fairmont State University, Claflin University, Delta State University, University of West Alabama, Boston University, and Indiana University Northwest -- schools that have not been mentioned thus far at Turner Business. Among these, Boston University plans to offer a minimum salary of $500,000 per year, and as much as $750,000 per year. At the other end of the spectrum, Langston University is offering a salary range of $125,000 to $130,000 per year.
