EHU to reveal new rector's name during first week of April

Appointment date of the new EHU rector has been repeatedly postponed. According to Euroradio, the new date is scheduled for the beginning of April:

"The management board of EHU is currently in the final stage of candidate selection for the post of rector. Given the serious nature of the issues related to this position, Rada decided to meet in person to consider the recommendations. This meeting will take place in late March and the decision of GAPO (General Assembly of co-owners) will be announced in the first week of April," said the Vice-Chairman of the EHU Governing Council Dan Davidson in a letter received by Euroradio.

At the moment, the favorites of the "election race" for the post of rector are American David Polik, now acting rector, Belarusian politician Alyaksandr Milinkevich and an EHU lecturer Tatstsiana Shchyttsova.

The competition for the post of the EHU rector was announced in the autumn last year. Former Rector of the University, Anatol Mikhailau, left his post in September 2014. He was the founder of the institution and headed it since its foundation.
