Search committee forms to find new affirmative action officer
When affirmative action director E. Shelton Burden resigned her post to attend divinity school at Vanderbilt University, Smith College formed a new search committee to fill her position. The chair of the committee, Associate Professor of Psychology Fletcher Blanchard, who had also been chair of the previous search committee, was to fill the position until a permanent candidate was found. Including Blanchard, the committee was made up of four faculty members, three administrators, one staff person, and three students appointed by President Dunn.
The full Sophian article on the forming of the committee can be found here (2, 4).
