The Dean of the College of Arts & Sciences announced his resignation Wednesday afternoon after serving for five years in that position.
Gary Myers resigned his duties as dean last Tuesday morning effective June 30 but does plan to resume his responsibilities in the English department as professor.
Jerry Gilbert, provost and executive vice president, thanked Myers for his services and loyalty to the department.
“Dr. Myers has been an excellent dean and has advanced the academic programs and research programs of the College of Arts & Sciences,” he said. “We look forward to having him continue to contribute as a faculty member in the department of English.”
Although the provost office has not set a time frame for making a new hire, Gilbert said the tenative plan of a replacement is to appoint an interim dean of students and launch a search for a full-time college head in the fall.
