It is with mixed feelings but ultimately well wishes that I announce that Kathy Lucas, Assistant Dean in the School of Humanities and Sciences, will retire from the College on March 31, 2018.  In her 37 years of service at the College, she has helped numerous students transition to college and succeed.  By providing leadership and overall direction in support of course scheduling, preregistration functions, and student services within the School of Humanities and Sciences, she has ably assisted the deans, chairs, faculty, and students of H&S, and has earned the respect and admiration of campus partners.  She has served this critical role with grace, dedication, and professionalism.  While we will miss her, we also send her well wishes as she enjoys more time during retirement.  We will host a retirement reception in her honor later this semester.  Please look for details forthcoming.  A search for her replacement will also begin soon and details will be announced.

Assistant Dean Kathy Lucas has served our community with distinction, resolve,
and integrity for many years. She has been a model student-centered
administrator. The School, and indeed the whole College, owe her an immense
debt of gratitude.

Thank you, Kathy, and all the best to you and yours.

I totally support the above statements. Kathy has been such a pillar of
support for students, advocating for them, trying her best to get them through
college in a meaningful way, and assisting faculty in understanding student
problems. No one can really comprehend how much she has done for so many
students here. All the best, Kathy, you so richly deserve a long and happy
retirement!

Near the beginning of her Ithaca College career, Kathy
became the first Administrative Assistant for the
Department of Mathematics and Computer Science, the largest
department in H&S at the time. She essentially defined
and gave life to this position, effectively dealing with
faculty, students, administrators and other college staff
in her usual calm, caring and enthusiastic manner. As
department chair at the time, I could never have asked for
a more able and hardworking colleague! Clearly, her
skills and abilities only have increased throughout her
career. We have been so fortunate to have had her at Ithaca
College.

Congratulations Kathy! I'll miss seeing your name pop up on my spy
phone. Best of luck to you.
