Leadership Transition in LIS

September 21, 2011

Sincere thanks go to Mary Kay Biagini for her leadership of the LIS program over the past two years. As she has communicated to me and to many of you, her intention was to provide program leadership during a 2-year contingency period for the LIS program, during which she creatively engaged in team-based leadership designed to spread the program’s administrative workload. Until the LIS faculty recommends new program leadership to me, I have asked Associate Dean Martin Weiss to assure continuity of academic leadership for the LIS program. Debbie Day will continue to provide primary administrative support to the LIS faculty and students.
