The University of Louisiana Monroe (ULM) Presidential Search Committee met today at the Claiborne Conference Center in Baton Rouge to review applications and select semifinalists in the search for ULM’s next president.

Following a careful review of applications and deliberations by committee members, the Search Committee has selected the following individuals to advance to the next stage of the search process:

• Jonathan Ambrose, Vice President for the Student Experience, Mississippi College

These semifinalists will participate in interviews on ULM’s campus next week, scheduled for April 29 and 30, 2025. During these campus visits, the candidates will engage with faculty, staff, students, alumni, and community stakeholders.

Following the campus interviews, the Committee will select finalists who will be invited to interview with the University of Louisiana System Board of Supervisors on May 19, 2025, in Baton Rouge.
