Rachel Salzberg Staff Writer A national search is currently underway at Guilford to find can didates for the school's next aca demic dean, after Kathy Adams, the current dean, retires to return to teaching. A search committee has been operational since around the first of November, according to Provost Dan Poteet. The committee "solic its applications, screens and evalu ates [the applications] and makes a recommendation to the presi dent." This recommendation may be anywhere from one name to a few different names.

Two hundred applicants is not an unusual amount. According to Poteet, th e search has only just started, and around 75 applica tions have been re ceived. JBsfi Adams History Professor Martha Cooley heads the search commit tee. According to Cooley, there are 8 members. They include Poteet, Marlene McCauley, Garland Granger, Mel Keiser, Cathy West, and two students: Kim Jarres and Chris Behm.

While there is "no way to know yet" the outcome of the search, Poteet predicts they could possi bly have an offer ready by early March. The new dean would start the first of July. Kathy Adams, the current dean, says she is ready to leave the posi tion of the academic dean, a post she has held for three years. Originally, the position was sup posed to be temporary, after the previous dean, Sam Schumann, left. She was the logical choice as she had worked with the dean on numerous occasions before. How ever, she "misses the students" and says she looks forward to going back to teaching in the psychology department at Guilford.
