Dear COEHD faculty and staff,

With classes officially underway, I want to say welcome back but also welcome aboard to our newest COEHD team members! I sincerely hope the semester is off to a great start and things, in general, are running smoothly. I cannot say enough how much I appreciate the large and small, grand and subtle things you do each day to advance us closer to our shared destinations of being the model for student success, a stellar community-serving research institution, and a responsive and caring college. It's the unrecognized actions that often make more significant impacts on our work. I am honored to serve as your dean and look forward to what we will accomplish together this year. I wish you all the success.

Sincerely,

Mario Torres, Ph.D. 

Dean, College of Education and Human Development
