Appointment Dean, Arts and Humanities

Vice Chancellor Caserio and I are pleased to announce that
Professor Frantisek Deak of the Department of Theatre will assume
the position of Dean, Division of Arts and Humanities, pending
presidential review for appointment July 1, 1994.

Professor Deak's appointment follows a campuswide search by a
committee comprised of faculty, staff, and students. He received
his Ph.D. in 1973 from Carnegie-Mellon University, and was
appointed to the faculty of UCSD in 1974. In addition to being a
renowned scholar and critic of the theatre, he enjoys an
outstanding reputation for his administrative and leadership
abilities.

We extend a warm welcome to the incoming Dean.
