Fall semester marks a new beginning for 领导 in three colleges at UNC. 这些 three new leaders will shape the culture of their colleges and bring tremendous scholarship, 组织 领导 and administrative excellence to build strong external relations and champion student 成功.
Longtime Geography professor, teacher and scholar at the university for more than 30年，吉姆·多尔纳博士.D., is the dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences (HSS) after serving as interim dean last year. 资深院长肯·科尔威尔， Ph.D., who joins UNC from the University of Houston-Victoria, is the dean of the Kenneth W. 蒙福特商学院. 凯茜J. 布拉德利,Ph值.D., MPA, is the Dean of the Colorado School of Public Health and the deputy director of the University of Colorado Cancer Center. The accredited, collaborative school of public health includes programs and dedicated faculty at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, Colorado State University and UNC, where it is part of the College of Natural and Health Sciences.
院长Doerner
“Historically, the humanities and social sciences were about the role of humans, how humans interact in the world,” said 吉姆 Doerner.
“Social scientists bring in problem-solving abilities, asking the right questions, analyzing data for some of the big societal issues we are facing and that they can address. Then you have people trained in the humanities, and what they bring to the table also addresses societal needs. I think that is the basis for going forward.”
Doerner is the first new dean at HSS in eight years. His vision for the college is imbued with a need to address the current, growing speculation about the role and need for the humanities and social sciences in the 21st century.
A tireless champion of students, Doerner is committed to helping them find their passion 和地点. He says HSS is currently a “college of discovery” as students find their purpose while taking courses in the college and they get hooked. 在未来，他 would like HSS to become a “college of destination.”

Colwell院长
肯Colwell brings 35 years of experience in industry and academia — including nearly 10 years as a dean — to his new role at 蒙福特商学院. 自从他到来 to campus, he has been doing a great deal of listening and learning from faculty, staff, students, alumni and the UNC community as he shapes his vision for the college 的业务.
Colwell was attracted to UNC’s status as an emerging Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI), having served as dean at three HSIs and Minority Serving Institutions (MSI). With time spent at both private and public universities, Colwell prefers regional public universities where he feels he can really make an impact on students’ lives.
“MCB will be a business school to watch,” said Colwell. “感谢巨大的 investment and generosity of UNC donors, we are developing the resources to bring to bear on student 成功, career services, study abroad and more. 这让我们感到困惑 and shoulders above other business colleges.”

“I want to help improve health and health care access for everyone, not just one person 一次，”布拉德利说. “We can reach the most lives through policy, health care delivery and making changes to prevent diseases from ever occurring.”
