FW: Message from the Deans--Physics Department Chair Announcement

[Winer, Brian]

    Dear all,

     I want to thank both Michael and Ralf for being willing to be considered for Chair.  It takes a certain amount of courage to put yourself forward for such a position; both were excellent candidates.  I’m glad we have identified the next person.  We face some critical decisions and tough choices in the coming months.  I will be working closely with Michael to bring him up to speed. Michael will be starting in this position at a very interesting time in both the department’s and university’s history.  He has my full confidence and support.  I ask that everyone in the department rally behind him as he leads us through uncharted territory.

-Brian

Subject: Message from the Deans--Physics Department Chair Announcement


Dear Department of Physics Faculty, Staff and Students,

I am pleased to announce the appointment of Michael Poirier as Chair of the Department of Physics effective July 1, 2020.

I would like to thank the Chair Search Committee – John Freudenstein as chair, Antonio Boveia, Linda Carpenter, Amy Connolly, Phil Davids, Dan Gauthier, Sabine Jeschonnek, and Alexandra Landsman – for their excellent work in handling the search process. I also wish to thank all of you for being highly engaged in this critical process, and for being willing to share your vision and plans for the future of the department.

I would also like to take this opportunity to express my sincere gratitude to Brian Winer, whose appointment as Chair will come to an end on June 30, for his many years of exemplary leadership and service to the department.

The entire ASC leadership looks forward to the next chapter of the department’s evolution with Prof. Poirier as Chair.

Sincerely,
Chris
