Presidential Search

The Ozarka College Board of Trustees has announced plans to conduct a search for Ozarka's fifth president.

The current president, Dr. Richard Dawe, has announced that he will retire in December after 15 years of service to Ozarka College.


For consideration, application materials (to include a letter of interest, a curriculum vitae, and the names, addresses, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses of five references) must be electronically submitted (MS Word or Adobe PDF) via hr@ozarka.edu by January 2025.

A review of applications will begin in February. The new President will assume office by July 1, 2025, or on an earlier date mutually agreed upon with the Board of Trustees. Compensation is commensurate with experience, and there is an outstanding benefits package.



Under the provisions of the Arkansas Freedom of Information Act, applications are subject to public inspection upon request.
