Bob Hauser, who has served as interim dean of the College of Agricultural, Consumer, and Environmental Sciences (ACES), will become the permanent dean, pending approval by the University of Illinois Board of Trustees this month.

The U of I announced Hauser’s permanent appointment last week. Hauser, an agricultural economist, had served as interim dean since July 2009 when Robert Easter stepped in to serve as the U of I’s interim provost and then later as its interim chancellor.

Hauser had served as head of ACES’ agricultural economics department before he assumed the interim dean post.

In a letter announcing Hauser’s appointment, Richard Wheeler, interim vice chancellor for academic affairs, noted Hauser’s permanent appointment was supported by ACES department heads, associate deans, and faculty.

“I, too, have been impressed by, and grateful for, his forceful advocacy for the college of ACES and his dedicated service to the campus,” Wheeler wrote.

Hauser joined the U of I faculty in 1982. He earned a bachelor’s degree and a doctorate from Iowa State University.
