Dear All,
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> I want to share a piece of news that I provide at today’s Faculty Meeting. This academic year is the last year of my four-year appointment as Department Chair. Earlier this week I informed the Division Dean that I would not seek reappointment
and I will be stepping down as Department Chair at the end of May 2020. The Divisional Dean will be providing guidance for establishing a procedure to identify the next Department Chair. As these details emerge they will be shared with faculty, staff, and
students in the department. </div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> While this is my last year, I still have a list of goals that I would like to accomplish. These were shared with the faculty today. I will be meeting with the graduate students tomorrow and the staff next Wednesday. In those meetings, I
will be reviewing those goals. I look forward to working with all of you over the remainder of the academic year to accomplish these.</div>
<div class=""><br class="">

<div class=""> Best regards,</div>
<div class=""><br class="">
</div>
<div class=""> Brian</div>
