Dean of Kent State East Liverpool and Salem Resigns

Kent State University Provost and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs Robert G. Frank has announced that Jeff Nolte has resigned from his position as dean of Kent State University at East Liverpool and Kent State University at Salem. Nolte is leaving his role as dean immediately due to personal reasons.

“Jeff has served Kent State for 14 years and led both campuses in tremendous growth,” Frank said. “His leadership will be missed.”

Frank has appointed Wanda Thomas to serve as interim dean of the university’s Columbiana County campuses. Thomas currently serves as Kent State’s Regional College dean and associate provost for Kent State system integration. Susan Rossi, assistant dean at Kent State East Liverpool, and David Guy, interim assistant dean at Kent State Salem, will assist Thomas on the day-to-day management of the two campuses.
