have verified that a vacancy does exist or will
exist.

attract desirable applicants. On the other, they
must resist the temptation of overselling their
virtues.

of application materials submitted by
applicants in response to the announcement
of an open position. The search committee is
responsible for selecting the candidates for
interview who meet all minimum
requirements and are most qualified to fill the
vacancy based on the stated requisite and
