Ron Sudol, dean of the College of Arts and Sciences at Oakland University, announced his retirement on July 3. He will be stepping down on August 14.
Sudol has been the CAS dean for seven years and has been active in both OU’s faculty and administration since 1977.
“Dean Sudol has served Oakland University for many years in key faculty and administrative roles,” Susan Awbrey, interim provost, said. “His deep commitment to strengthening academic programs in the College of Arts and Sciences has had a positive impact on students and faculty. He made a significant difference during his many years at Oakland.”
A celebration in honor of Sudol will take place in August. According to Stephanie Lee, administrative associate to the Provost, the date is still yet to be determined but should be released sometime next week.
Discussion for the process of selecting an interim or acting dean with the Assembly Executive Committee has already begun. For more details on how to apply and to learn more about the job description, visit Oakland’s academic jobs website. Applications will be accepted through July 23.
The CAS is the largest college at OU, offering more than 75 majors and 16 departments. The Board of Trustees approved four more degree programs for the college on March 28 — a master’s and Ph.D. in psychology and bachelor’s programs in both graphic design and criminal justice — all of which will be available for the 2012-13 school year.
