Smith to Be Dean
For 2 More Years
Professor Arthur C. Smith has been appointed to a two-year term as dean 
for  student affairs, effective July 1. He has been serving as acting 
dean since July 1, 1990.
The appointment was made by Provost Mark S. Wrighton.
"Professor Smith has had a major impact on the Office of the Dean for 
Student Affairs and has made an extraordinary impression on me and on 
other members of the Academic Council. The role he has played as a 
faculty member, as an advocate for the students, and as an administrator 
has been exceptional. I felt it was appropriate to formalize his role as 
a leader at the Institute," Professor Wrighton said.
