Institution Reorganization

Good Morning!

Yesterday President Granados shared several updates through her "From the Desk of the President" communication.  Among those discussed, the President provided information regarding an institutional reorganization that impacts several areas of the College.  The link below will provide you with the new organizational chart.

You will notice that Dr. Olson has assumed the position of Vice President for Student and Academic Affairs.  To support his role, Dr. Martin has been named Associate Vice President for Student Affairs and Mary-Rita Moore has been named Associate Vice President for Strategic Planning.  Dr. Amanda Turner is now the Dean, Enrollment Services, and Sujith Zachariah is the Associate Dean for Enrollment Services.  

As you will see in the organizational chart, the Division of Academic Success will report directly to Dr. Martin.  This is an exciting change for all of us.  Dr. Martin has an amazing dedication to the students, faculty, staff and community that comprises Triton College.  He is a tremendous advocate for student success and will provide leadership for our area.  I encourage you to reach out to him with your congratulations and create a welcoming environment during his transition into his new role.

The following is an excerpt for the President's Office communication including the linked referenced earlier.  Please feel free to share and questions you may have.

Organizational Restructure

There has been an organizational restructure prompted by the recent announcement of the resignation of Vice President Latham. The new structure will allow for the institution to have one vice president to lead both the academic affairs and student affairs areas, which helps reinforce the integration of academics and student affairs.  In addition, two additional associate vice presidents have been added to the structure to further support the vice president ensure  all areas get the proper attention that is deserved.  It is important to note that at this time internal appointments are best for the college due to the many other major changes currently taking place.  As mentioned on President’s Corner today, there will be an Open House held on February 9, 2012 to allow for faculty and staff to meet the new leadership and learn more specifics on how the structure will work. Organizational Structure

Have a Great Day!
