Fine Arts Task Force

Tools

In advance of a new search for the Dean of Fine Arts, the Fine Arts Task Force will propel a broad examination of how fine arts is organized at KU and make recommendations to the Provost. This is concurrent with a re-examination by the faculty of the School of Fine Arts of itself and how it envisions its future. John Gronbeck-Tedesco, professor in the Department of Theatre & Film, serves as interim dean of the School of Fine Arts, which encompasses the departments of art, design, and music & dance.
