New Liberal Arts Council


In response to the Liberal Arts Program Evaluation Assessment report, the College has created a standing steering committee consisting of Liberal Arts faculty and staff.  The Dean of Liberal Arts and the Dean of Science, Health and Business will serve as administrative liaisons. This committee will review, prioritize, and implement the recommendations of the Liberal Arts Program Evaluation, integrate the Liberal Arts with existing initiatives such as Academies, and explore the overall design and function of the various Liberal Arts programs. 

I would like to extend my gratitude to the following faculty and staff that have graciously agreed to serve on this council. 

Jannette Avery, Mathematics
Susan Belair, AHPS
Michael Boester, Chemistry & Geosciences
Patrick Callan, English/Philosophy
Sally Dingee, Advisement and Graduation Services

Michael Heel, Curriculum & Program Development
Rebecca Horwitz, Psychology
Robert Muhlnickel, Honors

This collaborative and cross-divisional group will convene in early June and begin the work necessary to realize the vision, goals and outcomes of our largest and most expansive program of study.
