Editor’s note: The following message was sent to CSU faculty by Provost and Executive Vice President Marion Underwood on Jan. 29.
The Office of the Provost and Executive Vice President has launched a national search for a vice provost for undergraduate affairs. Tom Siller has been serving as interim vice provost since last spring, and he has done an exceptional job in advancing key initiatives and elevating CSU’s student success work. Tom will be retiring by the end of June after more than 35 years at CSU. I am grateful for his dedication to our students and academic enterprise, and personally appreciative of his kindness and assistance in helping support my transition to Provost and Executive Vice President.
