A Message from the Dean

Dear Colleagues,

As you know we initiated this website to keep you up-to-date as HPER moves forward in this exciting transition into an accreditable school of public health. While change can bring with it a level of uncertainty, and for some even anxiety, I am confident that we are embarking upon one of the biggest opportunity of our school’s distinguished history, taking HPER to an even greater level of national prominence.

This site is but one avenue being used to ensure that information is being made available to everyone associated with our School. Additionally, a monthly newsletter entitled, “Accreditation Update,” will be electronically distributed as well as posted on this website.

Please take time to peruse these pages and review the attached documents. Like the transition process itself, this site is a work in progress. You can make this venue even more relevant by sharing topics of interest for inclusion. Please contact Dr. Evelyn Goldsmith with suggestions (evsgold@indiana.edu).

Warmest regards,
