New College of Arts and Sciences Associate Dean Announced

Doug Bullock has been named the third associate dean of the College of Arts and Sciences. He has been with the mathematics department since 1995 and served as chair from 2007-2012. He then worked for a year in the Provost’s office as director of academic analysis and logistics.

Bullock’s research focuses on low-dimensional topology and quantum algebra, and he also has published in the scholarship of teaching and learning. He has contributed in recent years to many student- and pedagogy-oriented projects funded by the NSF, including one that has fundamentally changed the way that the department delivers calculus, partly through curriculum redesign and partly through faculty development and culture-building.

The committee was composed of Lee Ann Turner (committee chair), Andrew Cortens, Denise Wingett and John Ziker. Bullock joins current associate deans Leslie Durham and CJ Northrup.
