Murray State University President Dr. Randy Dunn is one of two finalists in Missouri State University’s search for a new president.

The other finalist is former Missouri State general counsel and current interim president Clifton Smart III. Dunn has served as Murray State's President since 2006. Missouri State's website indicates campus interviews for the candidates are scheduled for the week of October 7th.

The Missouri State board of Governors will select the next President by early November. Missouri State University is located in Springfield and has around 20,000 students, twice as many as Murray State.
