Kasparian resigns


"Dr. Marie Kasparian has decided to return to teaching in the Chemistry Department and submitted her resignation as Director of Financial Aid effective June 30, 2001," the office of the provost announced. The Financial Aid office will now become part of the Admissions Office, allowing student background received through applications to be used in assessing financial aid applicants, but it will remain an independent unit. Dr. Salim Kanaan will now be heading both the Financial Aid and Admissions Offices. An associate director of financial aid will be hired to manage day-to day operations. The Senate University Financial Aid committee have also decided to create an Inter-Faculty Financial Aid Committee with reviews the recommendations of the Office of Financial Aid.
