They are  Leslie Kellogg, Ph.D., of Lake Michigan College in Michigan; Sandra Kiddo, Ph.D., of Hazard Community and Technical College in Wisconsin; and Tim Hood of Highland Community College in Illinois.

Mid has encouraged its past, current, and future students and community members to attend remote forums available via Zoom to ask questions and hear from the candidates.
