The committee is expected to start interviewing applicants within the next few weeks and will narrow the field to three candidates.

The former president, Robin Hoffman, retired last July. Larry Teems, the college's executive vice president, has been serving as acting president.

The college, based in Clarkston, teaches about 8,000 students.
