feature meet the dean LEN JESSUP PREPARES TO LEAD THE COLLEGE INTO A bright future The news came in with the new year: in January, the University of Arizona announced that Len Jessup (Eller Ph.D. '89) would lead the Eller College of Management as dean. Just five months later, he was on board full-time. Outgoing UA President Robert Shelton hailed Jessup as the perfect choice for the position, with a golden combination of experience including time served as dean of the b-school at Washington State University, his leadership of the WSU Foundation, and his expertise in entrepreneurship. Current UA President Eugene Sander headed the search committee that recruited Jessup. At a semester’s end barbeque for faculty, staff, and students, graduating senior Monique Rios, president of the Eller College Student Council, and MBA Student Association president Jenny Yang pointed out that Jessup had already met with students on multiple occasions — all while he was still wrapping up his duties at WSU. Jessup spent his summer on the road, connecting with Eller alumni in the West, at events in cities including Tucson, San Francisco, San Diego, Seattle, and Denver. The tour will continue this fall with stops in Phoenix, Chicago, and New York (visit www.eller.arizona. edu/meetthedean for details). “The warmth of our alum community is truly special, and I am grateful for the enthusiastic welcome that I have received to date,” Jessup said. If you haven’t already had the chance to meet new Eller College Dean Jessup yet, chances are you will soon. Eller Progress magazine checked in with him for a preview of what’s to come. 16 www.eller.arizona.edu n the university of arizona ®
