Royster Named Dean of Ivan Allen College

Posted by Admin On 2/23/2010
Following a national search, Georgia Tech Provost Gary B. Schuster has announced that Dr. Jacqueline Jones Royster, a professor of English with interests related to rhetorical studies, women's studies and literacy, will be the College's next dean.

In addition to holding the dean's chair, Royster will be a professor in the School of Literature, Communication and Culture. She is expected to start by the fall semester. During her 18-year tenure at Ohio State, Royster held a series of executive positions. Most recently, she was senior vice provost and executive dean of the Colleges of the Arts and Sciences, serving as chief academic officer and providing leadership for its five arts and sciences colleges from 2004-2008.

"I am deeply appreciative of the opportunity to lead an organization as dynamic and respected as the Ivan Allen College," Royster said. "I am very excited about the possibilities that lay ahead for me and my new colleagues at Georgia Tech."
