Contact: Christie McNeal
STARKVILLE, Miss.鈥擜 longtime art professor is moving into a new role as interim associate dean for 多多直播鈥檚 College of Architecture, Art and Design.
Jeffrey Haupt, who previously served as the painting concentration coordinator in the Department of Art, will take on the role of the associate dean. This addition to the college administration is allowing Associate Dean Greg Hall to concentrate his work as interim director of the college鈥檚 Building Construction Science program.聽
鈥淲e are fortunate in the College of Architecture, Art and Design to have the type of faculty and administrators that anticipate change and take advantage of opportunity,鈥 said CAAD Dean Jim West. 鈥淲e had a need to fill the director鈥檚 position in the Building Construction Science program, and our current Associate Dean Gregory Hall 鈥 who has a construction background 鈥 was willing to step into the role.聽
鈥淛effrey Haupt, one of our senior professors, was also equally willing and wonderfully equipped to assume the associate dean鈥檚 responsibilities.聽Both of these positions will benefit from fresh perspectives and energy,鈥 West added.
Haupt received his Master of Fine Arts from Indiana University and a Bachelor of Fine Arts in painting from the Cleveland Institute of Art. He began his teaching career in 1997 at Indiana University and then taught at the John Waldron Arts Center before joining the Mississippi State art department faculty in 1999 颅as an assistant professor. He was promoted to full professor in 2010.
鈥淚 am excited, humbled and grateful to serve CAAD and 多多直播 in this role,鈥 Haupt said.聽鈥淔or me, it becomes another channel for the pedagogical experience.鈥
