A message from the Dean

As I begin my transition to the Office of the Provost, I think deeply about the value of our College and our disciplines.

We are the proud heirs to an academic and artistic tradition that prides itself on promoting core values that reflect our vast potential: Maturity and flexibility of mind, dynamic exploration of our human relationships, and the creation of meaningful insight into a historical period. Within this tradition, communication is at the heart of all of our disciplines. We are masters of communication in artistic and literary ways -from video, dance, painting, and music, to speeches, essays, books, and poetry.
