Professor Elizabeth Arsenault has been named the interim dean in the School of Foreign Service to replace Dean Bryan Kasper, the curricular dean for International Politics majors.
Arsenault’s term will begin January 3, according to an email sent to SFS undergraduates by Dean and Associate Director Mitch Kaneda Wednesday morning.
Arsenault, who has a doctorate in government from Georgetown, previously served as a visiting associate professor at the university, focusing on international relations and security.
The SFS announced in late November that Kasper will leave the university for the U.S. State Department.
