Ann Cudd Appointed Dean of College of Arts & Sciences
Vice Provost of the University of Kansas Ann Cudd takes over as dean of the College and Graduate School of Arts & Sciences on August 1. Cudd, a philosopher who studies oppression, adamantly opposes the idea of downplaying the liberal arts for more professionally oriented fields like business and technology. She believes the humanities teach us how to look at society differently and ask ourselves the tough ethical questions.
