WILMINGTON, Del. (AP) — The Delaware College of Art and Design has picked an associate dean from Louisiana State University as its next president.
Stuart Baron will start this summer at the college after he finishes this fiscal year as the faculty research, development and advancement dean at LSU’s College of Art and Design.
Baron says few schools have students doing the kind of high-quality work he’s seen in the last two years at DCAD.
Baron was chosen from more than 50 candidates with support from board members, students, faculty and staff.
Search Committee Chair Ellen Semple says Baron’s academic and artistic experience and his vision for the future growth of DCAD set him apart.
Baron has worked at LSU for more than five years, including time as the School of Art’s director. He was named interim associate dean last year.—-Contact The Daily Reveille news staff at [email protected]
