Joanna Olmsted, professor of biology and dean of faculty development in the College, has been named interim vice provost and dean of the faculty for the College following the appointment of Thomas LeBlanc as executive vice president and provost at the University of Miami.

As the dean of faculty development in the College, Olmsted currently handles matters relating to the recruitment and review of College faculty in tenure-track and nontenure-track positions. She also works with department chairs and others in the Deans’ Office on strategic and budget planning.

"Tom LeBlanc has provided extraordinary vision and leadership to the College during the past nine years," says Olmsted. "While an open search is under way, Deans William Scott Green, Kevin Parker, Paul Slattery, and I, as well as the others in the College Deans' Office, are committed to providing the support to the College programs and to its faculty, students, and staff that characterized Tom's tenure."
