Texas State has appointed a new dean for the College of Education. John Spain has more in this Bobcat Update.
Since late last year, Dr. Stan Carpenter has served as interim dean of the College of Education. Carpenter replaced Rosalinda Barrera. Despite a national search to find a replacement, the internal candidate was chosen. Carpenter's seven years with Texas State and his nearly 20 years of service at Texas A&M undoubtedly bolstered his qualifications. The newly appointed dean says his plans are not to make broad changes to the College of Education, but to foster the collaboration of the school's three departments.
(Carpenter 0:15 "...those folks.")
Linda Homeyer, Chair of Adult Education and School Psychology, says Carpenter's influence will benefit the College of Education through his experience and well-focused approach.
(Homeyer 0:15 "...impact on everybody.")
Dr. Carpenter's experience was lauded by President Denise Trauth, who praised the dean as a "widely respected teacher and scholar" in a confirmation email sent to university faculty and staff. As Texas State begins a new five-year cycle of strategic planning for various colleges and departments, Carpenter is optimistic. The dean says he expects more research and scholarship opportunities to arise within the College of Education. For Bobcat Update, I'm John Spain.
