Even though her official start date is several weeks away, Dr. Rosemary Haggett is overseeing the final stages of the search for a permanent dean for the College of Arts and Sciences.
The incoming Main Campus provost and executive vice president for academic affairs accepted the position in March and was approved by the Board of Trustees April 16. Since that time, she has been working with the search committee and is now in the final stages of the decision-making process.
“This is a critical hire for The University of Toledo,” Haggett said. “And despite the need to juggle schedules, we are moving quickly to make a decision. However, we also want to make the right decision, and that means we will be taking time for thoughtful deliberations during this final period.”
Haggett, who will continue to serve in her current position into June, will visit Toledo in May, at which time she plans to meet with two of the finalists for the deanship.
“I have asked two of the finalists to return to campus for some additional discussions with myself and other key leaders,” Haggett said. “We have some great candidates for this role, and we are working hard to bring the search to a close.”
Returning to campus for additional conversations are:
• Dr. Yueh-Ting (Y-T) Lee, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Minot State University, Minot, N.D.; and
• Dr. Marietta Morrissey, associate dean in the College of Arts and Sciences at The University of Toledo.
“The four candidates forwarded to me by the search committee are still under consideration,” Haggett said. “It just seemed to me that these additional discussions are best had here on campus for efficiency’s sake.”
Haggett hopes to make a selection and begin negotiations with a candidate by June 1.
