Baylor University’s presidential search is gaining momentum, as the school released a prospectus this week detailing the ideal qualifications and characteristics of candidates.

Broken into four sections — academic vision, professional experience, leadership style and personal attributes — the profile lists “desired qualifications, and we acknowledge that it’s unlikely that any one person will fulfill all of these desires,” Baylor regent and presidential search committee chairman Joe Armes said.
