Bill Scholl Retiring

If that is the case (I think you are on the right path, Herman) my guess is the early finalists are Broeker and Josetti internally, Hardin (Drake), and maybe Pintens externally (though I don't think Pintens ever worked with Scholl).

Pintens hasn’t been at Marquette for a couple decades now.

Here’s the timeline. Seems like a waste of time and money if it is going to be Broeker or Josetti. Hell, seems like a waste of money to use these firms in general

It might be an internal hire.  It might not be.  Any time a leadership role of this magnitude on a college campus becomes open, it is in the school's best interest to open the position up, use a firm to help identify interested candidates and ultimately select the best candidate for the job.

As someone who has hired through search firms, and applied through search firms, they are a huge time saver for the school and gives applicants an extra measure of confidentiality. It also allows a candidate to have a more in depth conversation about the position with someone not employed by the school.

And may be required by the school for vice president positions and above.
