With a heavy heart, I wanted to share the second part of the announcement with you, which is that President Albrecht has asked me to be the next Executive VP/Provost. My heart is heavy because I have loved working with you in my role as Dean, Vice President and Director. It has been my honor to facilitate and carry forward what is important to you and also to celebrate the impacts and outcomes that we have created.
“Please know that I am committed to continuing our momentum over the next nine months and most certainly when I move into this new role at the University,” Cockett said.
