Four finalists for the position of dean of the College of Environment and Design will visit campus in the coming weeks to meet with members of the university community.
A committee chaired by Phillip Williams, dean of the College of Public Health, conducted a national search to identify the finalists. The committee was assisted by the UGA Search Group in the Division of Human Resources.
Each finalist will make a public presentation from 9:30-10:30 a.m. in Room 123 of the Jackson Street Building. The finalists and the dates of their presentations are:
