The sessions are an opportunity for students, faculty and staff to learn more about the search and provide input on characteristics they would like to see in the next dean. Questions may be submitted during each session using the webinar chat window or via email, calsforum@iastate.edu.

Nominations for the position may be submitted at any time to search committee co-chairs Guru Rao, associate vice president for research; or David Spalding, dean of the Ivy College of Business.
