 Subject: MASSMAIL - Graduate College Dean Search

The University of Illinois is now conducting a search for a new Dean for 
the Graduate College following the promotion of the current Dean, Richard 
Wheeler, to the position of Vice Provost.

The Graduate College has oversight responsibilities for about 9,000 
students pursuing degrees in over 300 master's and doctoral programs in 
more than a dozen academic colleges, schools, and institutes.  In 
additional to the importance of sustaining our many successful programs, 
the Dean of the Graduate College will provide crucial leadership as we 
launch new, interdisciplinary degrees and address the many challenges 
facing graduate education today.  A full job announcement can be found at 
http://www.provost.uiuc.edu/about/positions/Grad.html.

We are sending this note to the full faculty.  This is a very important 
leadership position and we encourage you to nominate individuals from 
within the University of Illinois or in other universities who meet the 
position requirements.  We also welcome direct applications from qualified 
individuals.

Given the importance of this search, the university has retained Dr. Jan 
Greenwood of Greenwood & Associates, Inc. to assist us.  If you have 
additional questions, please feel free to contact me (via e-mail at 
joelcg@uiuc.edu or phone (217) 333-1454) or Dr. Greenwood (via e-mail at 
jangreenwood@greenwoodsearch.com or phone (202) 746-6987).  All inquiries, 
applications, and correspondence will remain confidential.
For full consideration, applications should be submitted by February 15, 
2008.
