University of Missouri System Opens Internal Search for Inaugural Ombuds

The UM System, which oversees four land-grant universities and a health care system, has opened an internal search for its first Faculty Ombudsperson. Currently, there are Ombuds serving UM—St. Louis (Marlo Goldstein Hode, Staff Ombuds) and UM School of Medicine (Mark W. Drymalski, Ombudsman for House Staff); an Ombuds program for faculty and staff at UM–Kansas City is defunct. Details about the proposed UM System Ombuds have not been made public and the job posting is firewalled. (UM System Search.)
