Submitted on behalf of Linda Petrosino, Interim Provost/VPEA
Previous announcements have indicated a re-organization within the Provost and Educational Affairs area. An additional change is the position elimination of Associate Provost for Faculty and Student Advancement effective May 31, 2015. The responsibilities associated with that position have been redistributed across several areas within the Provost Office and Educational Affairs. For information regarding the redistribution of responsibilities please call Karen Emnett in the Provost Office.
As a result of the continuation of the reorganization within educational affairs, Dr. Carol Henderson will be leaving Ithaca College at the end of May. Having served as a dean and as a vice president for academic affairs at other institutions, Dr. Henderson moved to Ithaca in 2008 to join the Ecovillage and joined IC as an academic administrator in that same year. During Carol’s tenure with Ithaca College she has served as the accreditation liaison officer with Middle States and led the 2013 Periodic Review Process that resulted in renewal of IC’s regional accreditation and a commendation from MSCHE. She was instrumental in the establishment of the Center for Faculty Excellence, the Center for Academic Advancement, and chaired the 2011 national NCUR conference on undergraduate research held at Ithaca College. Additionally, Carol has served on many key committees including APC, the Academic Assessment Committee, the Retention Committee, the Faculty Development Committee, and the Shared Governance Task Force.
In recognition of Dr. Carol Henderson’s contributions to the institution, a farewell reception will be held on May 14, 2015, 3:30-5:00 pm in Clark Lounge. Please plan to join us as we celebrate Carol’s many contributions and accomplishments at Ithaca College. For any details regarding the reception or how to recognize Carol, please contact Wade Pickren or Laurie Wasik in the Center for Faculty Excellence.
