Newly Tenured Faculty Members Announced
On March 22, Interim Senior Vice President and Provost Suzanne Blum Malley sent an announcement to the Columbia College Chicago community announcing the newly tenured faculty members for 2019.
From the announcement:
I have the distinct privilege of recognizing the outstanding contributions our faculty have made to their fields and to the Columbia community through the tenure process. Achieving tenure is a significant career milestone, and an intensive and rigorous process that occurs over a six-year period in which faculty candidates are assessed by many individuals, including external reviewers, department colleagues, chairs, deans, and the All-College Tenure Committee (ACTC). I’d like to extend my gratitude to reviewers at all levels for their diligence in evaluating the applications.
It was a tremendous pleasure to review the achievements of our newly tenured colleagues and to look forward to the ways in which they will continue to enrich our community. Please join me in congratulating them! This year, I’m pleased to announce six new additions to our tenured faculty ranks:
