After an extensive national search, Dr. H. Fenwick Huss, dean of the J. Mack Robinson College of Business at Georgia State University, was selected as Willem Kooyker Dean of the Zicklin School of Business. He will assume the deanship and a faculty position in the Stan Ross Department of Accountancy on July 1.
Under Huss’s leadership during the past decade, Georgia State’s business college enriched and expanded its academic programs, facilities, infrastructure, and global reach, earning national and international honors. U.S. News & World Report’s Best Graduate Schools (2015), for example, ranked Robinson’s part-time MBA 29th nationally and 19th among public universities, squarely in the top 10 percent of U.S. programs. The largest business school in the South and the sixth largest in the nation, the Robinson College of Business has 200 faculty members, 8,000 students, 80,000 alumni, and programs on five continents.
Said Baruch Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs David P. Christy, “Dr. Huss’s lifelong commitment to the field of accountancy and to urban, public education of the highest quality makes him the ideal candidate to lead the Zicklin School of Business.”
