[Donna-Rae Marquez]

Dear CALS Personnel,
 
I am pleased to announce that Dr. Colin Kaltenbach has agreed to postpone
retirement and has been appointed by Provost Hay as Interim Dean and
Director of the Agricultural Experiment Station until a permanent dean
arrives.
 
In addition, I have made the following appointments.  Dr. Elaine Marchello
will serve as Interim Associate Dean for Academic Programs.  Dr. Kirk
Astroth has been appointed as Interim Director of Arizona Cooperative
Extension.  Both Dr. Marchello and Dr. Astroth will serve in their
respective roles as members of the CALS Executive Council until searches are
completed to fill the positions on a permanent basis.
 
Further, I am pleased to announce Dr. Barbara Hutchinson as Director of
Educational Communications and Technology (ECAT), Kurt Nolte as Interim
Director of the Yuma Agricultural Center in addition to his duties as Yuma
County Director of Cooperative Extension, and Peter Warren as Director of
Pima County Extension.
 
These appointments are effective July 1, 2011.  I want to express my thanks
to Colin, Kirk, Elaine, Barb, Kurt, and Peter for accepting these
appointments and guiding our college through this transition.
 
As to my future plans, with the blessing of one of the world's great women,
I will become President of the University effective August 1.  Wish me luck.
