BATON ROUGE, La. (Louisiana First) — A new timeline is set to select the next LSU President.

On Monday, the LSU Presidential Search Committee announced new meeting dates and a revised timeline to announce the successor to William Tate.

Tate left LSU earlier this year and was soon named President at Rutgers University.

The revised timeline reflects a scheduling adjustment to accommodate university leadership’s planned visit to the White House on October 20, in recognition of LSU’s championship baseball teams. As a result, the search committee will convene on the following dates:

Thursday, October 23, 2025 – 1:30 p.m.
The committee will review the feedback and determine which individuals will be formally invited to apply for the presidency.
Wednesday, October 29, 2025 – 9:00 a.m. (until completion)
The committee will conduct interviews with applicants and select three finalists to recommend to the LSU Board of Supervisors.

Following the identification of finalists, a series of meetings will be held with key LSU stakeholders.

A special meeting of the Board of Supervisors will be scheduled to select and appoint the next president of LSU formally.
