Please see the message below from Dean Krutz of the College of Arts and Sciences regarding the new Divisional Dean for Arts and Humanities. Within the admin structure of the college, divisional deans will be making financial and other decisions that impact departments and each division more broadly. As an example, in the past the Dean for Natural Sciences advocated for and successfully got an increase in grad student stipends for the Natural Sciences division, above the university base stipend rates. 

This position will be incredibly important and now is your chance to have input on what the job description for this role looks like and what qualities you want to see in whoever ends up with this job. You can do this by filling out this survey.

 

Dear students,

We are conducting a search for the new dean of the division of arts and humanities in the College of Arts and Sciences. We are contacting you to gather the student point of view. We encourage you to submit feedback through a survey at this link up to 11:59 p.m. Feb. 24. The survey solicits your views about the following:

  • The greatest opportunities for the division of arts and humanities.
  • The most pressing challenges for the division.
  • The most immediate priorities the new dean will address.
  • The professional attributes, experiences and qualifications the new dean should possess.
  • And any other feedback.

Additionally, the survey has a place to submit nominations for candidates for dean of the division.

Finally, the search committee will hold a second listening session on February 16 from 11am-12pm. Zoom information for attending the session will be made available closer to that date.

Thanks again for helping us chart the future of the division of arts and humanities.

 

Sincerely,

Glen Krutz
Dean
