“The new dean of the Scheller College of Business will lead a dynamic and diverse group of faculty, staff and students who are thinking creatively about business and will have an exciting job ahead of them as the College continues its path of excellence, scholarship, and leadership,” said McLaughlin. “I thank Dean Isbell and the members of the search committee for their service, and I encourage members of the Scheller community to engage in the search process.”
