Hello all: As you may or may not know, Dr. Carmen Roman-Shriver, the director of our new nutrition and dietetics program, will be retiring after the spring semester so that she may focus on her garden, and the other really important things! She will be missed. We will be searching for a new program director/nutrition researcher. The search committee is in place, but we are in need of an affirmative action advocate. I know that many of you in our college have been trained to serve in this role, but it has been ineffective for me to try and reach you by phone. Please let me know if you would be willing to help us out by serving as our affirmative action advocate for this important search. http://education.utsa.edu/health_and_kinesiology/new_coordinated_program_... Thank you, Bill William H. Cooke, Ph.D., FACSM Professor and Chair Department of Kinesiology, Health and Nutrition University of Texas at San Antonio San Antonio, TX 78249 (210) 458-5732 http://education.utsa.edu/health_and_kinesiology/message_from_the_chair/
