Dr. Linda P. Brady, dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences, will become the next senior vice president and provost at the University of Oregon. She will assume her new duties on July 1, 2006.
Brady has served as dean of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences (CHASS) and professor of political science at NC State since July 1, 2001.
“It has been a distinct honor for me to have worked with the wonderful faculty and staff in CHASS,” Brady said. “I am convinced that the leadership opportunity I have had here was a significant factor in my selection.”
“Linda Brady is an accomplished leader who has been devoted to excellence in every dimension of the College of Humanities and Social Sciences,” said Chancellor James L. Oblinger. “In her five years here, she has strengthened the college’s relationships with those in our communities, in our state and in our nation. Linda has also remained focused on serving the needs of our students and preparing them for the complex challenges of the future.”
Provost and Executive Vice Chancellor Larry Nielsen said, “Dean Brady has helped prepare the College of Humanities and Social Sciences to provide our students the context, the understanding and the expertise necessary in today’s society. The new degree programs that have been added during her tenure will shape the college for years to come. Her management style and outreach have been appreciated by students, faculty, staff and administration.”
Brady will remain in her role as dean of CHASS during the 2006 spring semester. Oblinger and Nielsen will name an interim dean.
A native of New York City and the first member of her family to attend college, Dr. Brady graduated from Douglass College, the women’s division of Rutgers University, in 1969 with a degree in political science. She received her master’s degree in political science from Rutgers in 1970, and her doctorate in political science from Ohio State University in 1974.
