BOULDER -- The two finalists for the position of chancellor of the University of Colorado at Boulder have confirmed official visits to the campus next week.
Dr. John Moseley, vice president for academic affairs and provost at the University of Oregon, and Dr. Richard Byyny, interim chancellor of the University of Colorado at Boulder, will visit the campus beginning with Moseley on Monday, April 14 (through Wednesday, April 16) and concluding with Byyny on Thursday, April 17 (through Friday, April 18).
Edward C. Stone, director of the Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, Calif., and internationally known planetary scientist, will lecture at the University of Colorado at Boulder April 15 in a talk titled The Search for Life Elsewhere.
Stone has served as the project scientist for NASAs Voyager mission since 1972 and coordinated the efforts of 11 teams of scientists in their studies of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune. As the lead U.S. center for the robotic exploration of the solar system, JPL is managed for NASA by the California Institute of Technology.
Five finalists for dean of the School of Education at the University of Colorado at Boulder will begin campus visits on Sunday, April 13.
Following campus visits by each of the five finalists the search committee, chaired by Engineering Dean Ross Corotis, will make its final recommendation on the position to Wallace Loh, vice chancellor for academic affairs.
The finalists, their current positions and the dates of their campus visits are:

A description of how CU-Boulders Integrated Teaching and Learning Laboratory was developed might read a little like the Gettysburg Address with the addition of the word student: of the students, by the students and for the students.
The three-story, 34,000 square foot laboratory is intended primarily for use by undergraduate engineering students and this semester is being used for freshmen, sophomore and junior courses.
Editors: A media tour of the ITLL will be at 10 a.m. April 22 beginning at the east entrance of the engineering college.
The University of Colorado at Boulder will dedicate a one-of-a-kind, $17 million hands-on learning facility April 24 that was designed and built to provide real-world engineering experience to more than 1,200 undergraduates a day.
* The ITLL facility was designed by the Denver architectural firm of Klipp, Colussy, Jenks and DuBois with assistance by NBBJ Architects of San Francisco and Sheere/Leese Architects of Denver. It was built by M.A. Mortenson Co. of Denver.
* ITLL will accommodate up to 1,200 students a day, about one-half of the undergraduate engineering student body population at CU-Boulder. The building will be open for use 16 hours a day, seven days a week with the goal of having every engineering undergraduate using the facility every semester.
