follows:

University, will consider the request pursuant to the current needs and available
resources of the University.

B. If the request is approved, the Vice President for Academic Affairs will inform the Vice
President for Business and Finance of the vacancy and pertinent information including
starting time, academic and experience requirements, and a complete job description
including all responsibilities.

issues and the confidentiality of the candidate’s application.
