Dear Members of the Seton Hall Community,
|
I hope you are enjoying a relaxing and memorable summer. Even as we take time to recharge, preparation is well underway for what promises to be a path-breaking year at Seton Hall.
|
The new college, which was developed in accordance with Harvest Our Treasures strategic goals, reframes education and communication as engines of innovation that intersect with each other to drive human development.
|
The new college epitomizes one of the hallmarks of a Seton Hall education: an interdisciplinary approach to learning that grounds students firmly in their chosen disciplines while expanding their perspectives through collaboration – setting them apart in their ability to lead in a wide variety of fields and solve society’s most-pressing problems.
|
These are the kinds of CHDCM-prepared leaders who will use their knowledge and experience to create positive change in their communities and beyond:
|
- A teacher grounded in interactive media (video games and virtual reality programs) who can enhance classroom experiences;
- A school counselor trained in the performing arts who can foster deeper connections with students;
- A journalist trained in sound production and engineering with the ability to excel as a multimedia storyteller; and
- An artist trained in trauma therapy.
|
In the coming weeks, we will announce the appointment of the college’s dean. An extensive search process has yielded several outstanding candidates, all of whom are excited by the prospect of leading this vital, new place for interdisciplinary learning. I hope you will take advantage of the many upcoming opportunities to learn more about the college and engage with its faculty, students and unique programing.
|
Finally, I want to express my deep appreciation for the many faculty, administrators and staff who have invested considerable time and energy and contributed their wisdom to the process of establishing the college. It is no small task, and their remarkable work will have a lasting impact on our students and our institution.
|
Together, we are building on a tradition of excellence to provide exciting, new ways for Seton Hall students and alumni to make their mark in an ever-changing world.
|
Katia Passerini, Ph.D.
Interim President
