All are invited to attend the installation of Marie Lynn Miranda, PhD, as the inaugural Samuel A. Graham Dean in the School of Natural Resources and Environment. We hope you will join us on Thursday, October 30, for a lecture and reception to mark this historic occasion. Please click here to RSVP.

SNRE’s endowed deanship was made possible thanks to an extremely generous gift from Ingrid (BS ’57) and Donald Graham (BSE ’55, MSE ’56). Ingrid and Don have aptly carried on the legacy began by Don’s father, Professor Sam Graham, one of SNRE’s most influential figureheads. We owe them a tremendous debt of gratitude, and we will take this opportunity to recognize and celebrate their transformational gift.

The festivities will begin at 4:00 p.m. with a public lecture delivered by Dean Miranda in the Dana Building, Room 1040. In addition to her administrative leadership responsibilities, Dean Miranda directs the Children’s Environmental Health Initiative and holds appointments in the Department of Pediatrics and the Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology. The title of her lecture is, “Blue Leads Green: SNRE’s Bold Ideas for a Better World.”

A reception in the Ford Commons will immediately follow the lecture.

We hope to see you on October 30 as we celebrate the Samuel A. Graham Deanship at SNRE.
