One of the finalists is Amit Chakma, who is president and vice chancellor of the University of Western Ontario. Another is Joan Ferrini-Mundy, chief operating officer of the National Science Foundation.
The other two are University of New Hampshire provost Nancy Targett and University of Connecticut distinguished professor Sally Reis.
