Dean of Technology, Business, and Physical Education Yasmine Ziesler will be leaving Castleton after her recent appointment as the Vermont State Colleges' Chief Academic and Technology Officer.
Ziesler oversees Castleton’s information and learning technologies, First-Year Seminar, and Study Away programs. Ziesler has previously served in a number of academic and student life leadership roles at the Community College of Vermont and at Castleton. In her new role, she will provide leadership for academic policy, program delivery, professional development, institutional research, and use of technology in academic programming and delivery across the Vermont State Colleges system.
"I am especially appreciative of her leadership of our First-Year Seminar program and in helping to strengthen the effective use of technology as an aid to teaching and learning," said Castleton's Chief Academic Officer Tony Peffer. "We will miss her and wish her all the best."
Ziesler's duties will be absorbed by other members of the university's leadership team.
