The consultant assisting in the search for a new dean for the College of Arts and Sciences will be on campus this Friday to gather comments and information from a cross section of the college community.

Kim Morrison of Diversified Search wants to hear what different groups within the college think about the challenges and opportunities facing the college and the desired skill sets for the new dean. She will use the information to create a prospectus to be used in the recruiting process.

• CAS graduate teaching fellows: 9:30-10:15 a.m. (enter through courtyard on south side of building the near Marché)
