Sense of the Senate Resolution
September 5, 2007
 
The Faculty Senate extends an enthusiastic expression of congratulations to Neil Kerwin upon his selection to become President of American University.  

The Senate recognizes Neil Kerwin as an active scholar, a respected teacher, and a proven leader.  Thirty-nine years of dedication and service as a student, faculty member, dean, provost, and interim president have given Neil Kerwin unparalleled experience and knowledge of American University. 

Whereas, the University has progressed substantially in recent years thanks in no small measure to Neil Kerwin’s contributions, we the members of the Faculty Senate resolve to work closely with President Kerwin in continuing to advance the mission of American University.
