Professor Feighery returns with award


Professor Bill Feighery, our inorganic chemist, has at last returned to the department full-time. He has been serving part-time in administration as assistant dean since 2017 which, unfortunately, for us, limited his involvement in department affairs. However, the administrative need was great and Feighery served the College of Liberal Arts and Science extremely well to earn him one of the campus's Top 25 Titan awards for demonstrating consistent stellar performance and going above and beyond normal responsibilities. We are super excited to have him back with us, but also sad to see his expertise leave the Dean's Office. Fortunately, the scientific mind will still be present there with previous Organic Chemist, Professor Doug McMillen, serving as Interim Dean and Physics Professor Henry Scott taking Feighery's place as assistant dean. You've got to love scientists!
