Professor of English Andrea Rehn has been appointed associate dean and director of the Whittier Scholars Program (WSP). Charles Eastman, senior lecturer and director of the writing program, will be interim associate director. Both posts begin in fall 2017.

Rehn is currently associate director of WSP and founding director of DigLibArts.

“[Rehn] excels both as an inspiring teacher and a masterful advisor. She brings to this new role her expertise as a highly-regarded Victorianist, Ed Tech Guru, and rock climber,” said Vice President for Academic Affairs Darrin Good. “Eastman ... regularly receives praise from his students. He has led numerous campus initiatives, including chairing major committees, and directing an NEH grant to globalize the first-year curriculum.”
