University Vice President for Facilities and Student Housing Karen Frank will leave her position at the end of August, University President John J. DeGioia announced in an email sent to the campus community Thursday afternoon.
Frank will now serve as a senior advisor to University Senior Vice President and Chief Operating Officer Chris Augostini.
According to the email, the university plans to launch a national search for Frank’s successor. In the interim, Frank Tiscione, who spent 13 years working with the Architect of the Capitol, will fill the role of Interim Vice President for Facilities and Student Housing.
Frank has worked at the university since 1987 and oversaw the construction of the Leavey Center, School of Foreign Service campus in Doha, Qatar, Regents Hall and the Calcagnini Contemplative Center in Bluemont, Va.
“Over the past ten years alone, Karen has been instrumental in the largest capital expansion in our history by adding [10] new buildings, totaling more than 1.5 million square feet of new space,” DeGioia wrote.
Frank also played a role in the development of the university’s sustainability projects and managed Georgetown’s grounds-keeping, waste management, energy management and transportation services.University Vice President for Facilities and Student Housing Karen Frank will leave her position at the end of August, University President John J.
