FALL 2012
Welcome

Semester greetings from Academic Search,

 

As the semester kicks off in earnest, we at Academic Search wish all of you a productive and fulfilling fall. This issue of our newsletter features congratulations to those we had the privilege of working with over the past six months. It is always exciting to see the search process yield such outstanding leadership.

 

Speaking of leadership, Academic Search is delighted to have so many relationships with important leadership programs. We appreciate the good work these programs do in keeping the pipeline flowing with talented and committed individuals, especially during this critical time for higher education. I have certainly been impressed by my own involvement with the AACSB, AALI, AASCU, ACE, and CIC programs during this past year. Kudos to those who provide these important programs.

 


With warm wishes,

Jessica S. Kozloff
