The College of Health and Human Sciences (HHS) Dean’s Leadership Council, established in 2019, is a demographically varied group of distinguished HHS alumni and friends. Council members draw on their expertise and leadership experiences to serve as both a source and sounding board for sustainable ideas that will advance the college. As a whole, the council represents each of HHS’ nine academic units and offers strategic advice in the areas of program development, career preparation for students, alumni engagement, fundraising initiatives and more. The group meets on campus twice annually.
