Augustus stepping down as first Dean College Chancellor effective April 14, 2023
"Dear Dean Community,On behalf of the Board of Trustees of Dean College, I extend my sincere gratitude and thanks to Edward M. Augustus, Jr. as he steps down from his role as its first Chancellor. We thank him for his years of service to Dean College as a Board Member, and for his contribution at a critical moment in Dean’s history as we turn toward a new era of growth and development.Mr. Augustus’ vast experience in public life and deep knowledge of Dean was of great benefit to the College during a moment of significant and historic transition. Mr. Augustus brought reassurance to our campus that Dean can and will flourish into the future built around a new vision and fresh thinking.Consistent throughout his relationship with Dean, Mr. Augustus shared the devotion to our students, and our unique culture of inclusion and support that makes our College so meaningful to those who study and work here, The Dean Difference.Until the end of June, Mr. Augustus will be working as a Special Advisor to the Chairman of the Board. We wish Mr. Augustus the best of all futures.With sincere appreciation,Mark D. Boyce, Chair of the Board of Trustees"
