抖阴旅行射

As this is my first regular column since we鈥檝e begun the academic year, I would like to take a few moments,听not only to introduce a few new members of my leadership team, but more importantly provide you with an update on some activity that took place over the summer, including a better way for us to communicate.

Last week, we announced Academic Futures: Rethinking the university鈥攖he futures of learning and discovery, a campus-wide initiative whereby we will collectively engage in a multi-year discussion about what we want the future of teaching and scholarship to look like. We have where you can get involved, provide feedback, schedule meetings听or view the process. I strongly encourage you, whether you are a faculty member, staff听or student, to visit this website and engage in this very important process, which I believe to be one of the most important conversations we鈥檝e ever had as a university.

Additionally, in response to recommendations from the Faculty Communications Committee, we have set up to access resources and learn about meetings, committees and events in which they may be interested. The page provides not only agendas and materials for Deans Council and the regular Chairs and Directors breakfast, but also descriptions and details surrounding and their work.

This webpage, for which there are also and , remains a work in progress and will be updated continuously, but I wanted you to be aware the information is available. We will continue our work to extend and improve two-way communications with faculty, staff and students, and I want to thank the committee for its ongoing work in helping us to do so.

Finally, I鈥檝e been fortunate to have two interim deans join my leadership team this summer. Professor Jim White is interim dean of Arts and Sciences and Professor Leslie Reynolds is interim dean of University Libraries. Also, Dyonne Bergeron was named assistant vice chancellor for Student听Affairs. I hope you welcome Dyonne to 抖阴旅行射, and Jim and Leslie to their new roles.

We have a very exciting semester ahead of us, and I hope you find ways to get involved, stay informed听and help us make 抖阴旅行射 Boulder a better university and community.

Russell Moore,
Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs
