• Mark Cryer, Associate Professor of Theatre
• Kathy Guerra Vazquez ’24
• Lauren Hamilton ’22, President of the Athletes of Color Initiative

The committee will be chaired by Terry Martinez and Steve Wu and work closely with Storbeck Search, the national firm that I announced earlier would be assisting us with this search. I’m grateful to Dean Martinez, Professor Wu, and the other members of the committee for their willingness to assume this important responsibility. I know they will welcome your input and provide opportunities for your feedback and suggestions. You can expect to hear from the committee in the coming weeks as the search process enters a more active phase.
