A Letter of Thanks
Dear Marc;
On behalf of current and past Business Advisory Council members, thank you for your leadership and unwavering love for Miami University and the Farmer School. At a time when many would have happily wound down their careers in preparation for retirement, you stepped up when asked to serve, first as interim dean, and then as Dean and Mitchell P. Rales Chair in Business Leadership. We are a better university and a better school because of your decision and actions.
Under your leadership, you fostered a strong sense of community among students, alumni, faculty and staff, that will provide a high standard and wonderful example for the incoming dean. You championed strong curricular changes such as our distinctive First Year Integrated Core Curriculum, placed a focus on faculty development by creating the San Francisco Faculty Treks and engaged countless students in the Forsythe Commons during your “office hours” discussing with them their Miami and Farmer School experiences.
We wish you and Julie every happiness in your so very well-deserved retirement.
