• Myrtle Dorsey, chancellor of Baton Rouge Community College, Baton Rouge, La.
• Beverlee McClure, president and CEO, New Mexico Association of Commerce & Industry. Albuquerque, N.M.

The committee pared down a list of 38 today in its search for someone to replace Gwen Stephenson, who plans to retire in June after leading HCC for nearly 13 years.
The 15 committee members, including community leaders and HCC faculty and administration, plan to interview the 10 finalists in Tampa next week and recommend three to five to the HCC board. The board plans to make its choice next month.
HCC has about 45,000 students and five campuses across Hillsborough County. It also has two satellite locations, a distance learning program and a corporate training center.
