All,

As a colleague and as a friend I would like to thank Fouad for his service as the Department Head.  He has served for several years, and the last one has been a very difficult one.  I am not good at preparing speeches,  and also do not want to duplicate the list of achievements listed in the communication from the Dean.

All I wish to say is that despite several challenges Fouad's dedication is much appreciated.  We are a very heterogenous group and it is natural that differences arise, but dealing with differences, through mutual respect makes us grow.  Thank you Fouad!

Also,I will be serving as the Acting Department Head  and Doug Cattani serving as the Acting Associate Head.

Claudio
