Dean of Arts position finalists visiting our campus virtually

To: UC Santa Cruz Community

From: Campus Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor Lori Kletzer

I am happy to announce that starting Monday, March 8, five finalists for the Dean of Arts position will be virtually visiting our campus. Candidates over the course of two days will be meeting with various constituents from the Chancellor’s and CP/EVC’s offices and from the Arts Division, as well as with campus leaders, and staff and student representatives. 
During the virtual visits, each candidate will give two public talks, a Scholarly Research Talk and a Town Hall Talk. A moderated Q&A period will follow each presentation. The schedules for these talks are detailed below. We encourage everyone to watch through Zoom and to provide feedback via survey to the search committee.
Candidate names and CVs will be available one week prior to their visit.  Materials, video recordings of candidate talks, and survey links will be placed in a Google document linked to the CP/EVC Leadership Searches webpage.
The Dean of Arts Search Committee hopes you will actively participate in this important search. Please direct questions about the recruitment process or interview schedule to Lauren Morgan at llmorgan@ucsc.edu.
