Office of the Dean
September. 2009
The College of Arts and Sciences is the hub of the liberal arts experience and the academy here at Southern Oregon University. The College has tremendous breath and many highly committed and talented faculty members, who value teaching above all else.
Within the College's many programs and majors you will find small classes, accessible professors, and undergraduate opportunities to perform research, conduct fieldwork, as well as participate in special projects and hold internships. The educational experience in the College of Arts and Sciences at SOU is an intimate learning and life altering opportunity.
There is a deepening momentum and a tremendous sense of pride within the College of Arts and Sciences. As the incoming Dean of this great College I welcome you, and encourage you to dig deeper within these web pages to explore our programs and get to know our people. And please - come and visit!
