Search for RIC president narrows to 4 finalists

The search for a new president of Rhode Island College has narrowed to four finalists. They are:

* Nancy Carriuolo, Rhode Island College's interim vice president for academic affairs and deputy commissioner and chief academic officer at the state Office of Higher Education.

* John William Folkins, chief executive officer at Bowling Green State University Research Institute in Ohio.

* Alfred J. Guillaume Jr., vice chancellor for academic affairs and a French language professor at Indiana University South Bend.

* Nancy Kleniewski, provost and vice president for academic affairs at Bridgewater State College in Massachusetts.

A presidential search committee appointed by the state Board of Governors for Higher Education has recommended the four.

Last October, RIC President John Nazarian announced that he will retire when his contract expires in June, capping 58 years at the college, the last 18 as president.
