Farnham" Conrad.J.Farnham@Dartmouth.edu<br />>Date: Tue, 18 Aug 2009 15:39:06 EDT<br />>Subject: Message from Frances Vernon<br />>To: All Undergraduates:;<br /><br />Dear Students,<br /><br />I hope you are having a great summer term. I am writing in regards to the recent announcement of the resignation of Tom Crady as Dean of the College. As you know, Sylvia Spears will serve as Acting Dean for the next two years.<br /><br />I would like to take this opportunity to briefly address some immediate concerns and how this will affect our student body.<br /><br />After speaking with Dean Spears this morning, I believe she is well prepared for the job and she will act in the best interest of all Dartmouth students. In light of many changes on campus, her experience in the Office of Pluralism and Leadership and the Dean of the College Office will be of tremendous help and make her the best choice for this position.<br /><br />Orientation is a huge priority for the Dean of the College. Dean Spears would like to communicate to all students that the Office is ready to welcome the Class of 2013 and give them full attention.<br /><br />For those who are involved in dialogues or initiatives with Dean Crady, Dean Spears will be following up on major projects and initiatives in the near future.<br /><br />Dean Spears plans to be very accessible to students. She is excited about continuing to connect with students in important and meaningful ways. She assures me that she will be communicating more formally with students as soon as possible.<br /><br />As many of us come back to campus this fall our community will experience a number of historical transitions. During this time, there will be many new opportunities and I hope our undergraduate community will continue to play a significant role in shaping the Dartmouth experience.<br /><br />Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns. I look forward to seeing many of you back on campus this fall!<br /><br />Thank you,<br /><br />Frances Vernon<br />Student Body PresidentArnold Tungstenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07115381066745211730noreply@blogger.com
