UC DAVIS: Chancellor's Office July 17, 2002 Deans, Directors, Department Chairs RE: Graduate Studies I am pleased to announce that Dean Cristina González has accepted my invitation to serve as Senior Advisor to the Chancellor, effective August 1, 2002, to assist me during a period of rapid growth with a variety of projects that do not fall naturally within the purview of any specific area, but that require the focused attention of a senior administrator. To enable her to assume this role she will be leaving her current position as Dean-Graduate Studies. I am grateful for her willingness to help UC Davis meet these needs; her help will be invaluable to us during this critical period. During Dr. González's tenure as Dean of Graduate Studies, the campus achieved a new level of excellence in graduate education. She has also served with distinction as Chair of the UC Council of Graduate Deans and as a member of various national committees, including the Association of Graduate Schools Executive Committee, the Council of Graduate Schools Executive Committee and Board of Directors, and the Council of Graduate Schools Advisory Committee on Minorities in Graduate Education, which she currently chairs. In addition, Dr. González has authored numerous articles on higher education topics that have been widely read and cited. Academic Senate Chair Jeffery Gibeling, former Executive Associate Dean in Graduate Studies, has agreed to assume the position of Dean-Graduate Studies beginning August 1, 2002 for a two-year period. He will, between now and then, be working closely with Graduate Studies staff to ensure a smooth transition. His successor as Chair of the Davis Division of the Academic Senate will be selected by the Committee on Committees in keeping with the Bylaws of the Academic Senate. Dr. Gibeling has served as a member of the Graduate Council for five years, beginning in 1991, including a year and a quarter as its Chair. He served as Executive Associate Dean in Graduate Studies from January 1996 through June 1998. I look forward to working with both Dr. González and Dr. Gibeling in their new capacities. Larry Vanderhoef Chancellor 02-097
