  • No Dean Left Behind I Want to Thank You All for Being Here This Afternoon
    No Dean Left Behind I want to thank you all for being here this afternoon. Thank you for choosing to be here with CCAS. The conference is going well, and I again extend my great thanks to our CCAS Board, and Joe Gow in particular, for planning this meeting, to Anne-Marie McCarten, our executive director, and to Kristen Novel for doing such a fine job behind the scenes. Many thanks go out to ICFAD board members and staff as well – Richard Durst, the new executive director Liz Cole, Ron Jones, and Maurice Sevigny – for making this coordination happen. As you know in many large organizations collaboration is extremely difficult, and to do so says a great deal for the collaborative spirit of both our organizations. The point of collaboration brings me to the musings I will share with you today, and while the concept of collaboration and the title of the talk, ‘No Dean Left Behind,” do not seem connected, hopefully they will become so in another 30 minutes or so. I came up with the title of the talk last March – I think I was in one of those flippant, cynical moods common to deans in the early spring. And having publicly announced the title at our April board meeting my destiny was set. Thus for the last six months or so I have been contemplating the many ways deans of Arts and Science have been left behind in the past few decades, and how, perhaps, this organization, beginning its 41st year, can help to get us back onto the playing field.
