I am pleased to share that a search advisory committee has been formed to lead a national search for the next dean of the College of Liberal Arts and Sciences.

Kati Migliaccio, dean of the College of Agricultural and Life Sciences, will chair the committee, which will be assisted by Parker Executive Search.

The other committee members are William Barbazuk, Ronald Castellano, Kenneth Kidd, Joseph Spillane, Julia Graber, Michael Daniels, Benjamin Smith, Jane Southworth, Chris Hass, Uma Sethuram and Amy Galloway.

Faculty and staff are encouraged to nominate qualified candidates. Applications and self-nominations are also welcome.

Please submit nominations by January 8, 2027. Finalists are expected to visit campus for interviews in February.

I thank Dean Migliaccio and the other search committee members for their time and efforts dedicated to filling this key leadership position.
