Ms. Patricia Dolan as the Interim Director of Academic Effectiveness

Provost Cope has announced the appointment of Ms. Patricia Dolan as the Interim Director of Academic Effectiveness for the campus, effective August 1, 2008. Ms. Dolan is Special Assistant to the Provost for accreditation and strategic planning. In that capacity she has been an essential staff member in the data collection, analysis and writing of the reaccreditation self-study report and development of the new Gateway for Greatness strategic plan, in conjunction with Associate Provost Judith Walker de Felix. Pat Dolan’s experiences with assessment in the accreditation self study process have prepared her to take on this additional responsibility on an interim basis until a faculty member can be appointed. This position is still open as a half-time appointment for a qualified faculty member, and interested faculty members are encouraged to discuss this position with the Provost. Pat Dolan will serve in this position on an interim basis until a faculty member can be appointed. We appreciate her willingness to serve in this capacity.
