The Faculty of Arts is pleased to welcome two new postdoctoral fellows, who have joined the Provost’s Program for Interdisciplinary Postdoctoral Scholars: Dr. Geneva Smith who began in her role on July 1, 2024, and Dr. Paula Catalina Sanchez Nuñez de Villavicencio who will begin on August 1, 2024.

Faculty of Arts and campus colleagues gathered to celebrate Dr. Sheila Ager’s five-year tenure as Dean. Emceed by Doug Peers, former Dean of Arts (a “has-dean”), there were reflections, laughs, and almost-tears shared by friends, colleagues, and family. Speakers included Bob Kerton, Dean of Arts Emeritus, Mary Wells, Dean of Engineering, Lili Lui, Dean of Health, Dean Ager’s brother, and the dean herself.
