Mazz Marry & Jitendra Singh among 36 higher education leaders chosen for AASCU’s Department Chair Institute
The American Association of State Colleges and Universities (AASCU) has selected 36 higher education professionals for the second cohort of its Department Chair Leadership Institute (DCLI), a program designed to address the unique needs of department chairs at state colleges and universities. Among the members are Minnesota State University Moorhead chairs Mazz Marry, chair of the Biosciences Department, and Jitendra Singh, co-chair of the School of Nursing & Healthcare Leadership, the only faculty selected from the region.
DCLI was created in response to member feedback and requests for a robust professional development program to help department chairs cultivate critical skills to overcome common challenges, as well as prepare for future administrative roles.
Denise Gorsline, Chair of the MSUM School of Communication and Journalism, was previously selected as a member of the DCLI’s inaugural cohort.
