Dean's Advisory Board
In 2000, Dean Richard Schwab established the Dean's Advisory Board.
He chose 16 prominent people of diverse experience to provide counsel
and help identify the resources needed to fund and meet the goals of
the NSoE's strategic plan.
The expertise of his board members ranges from business to public policy
and government. Some are UConn alumni. The one common thread among them
is their deep commitment to public education. Anyone interested in joining
the team is urged to contact the Dean.
