Dear UAH students, faculty and staff,
I am delighted to announce the permanent appointment of Dr. Jodi Price as Dean of the College of Arts, Humanities, & Social Sciences (CAHS), effective immediately.
Dr. Price exemplifies UAH's commitment to recognizing and elevating internal talent. Since joining our Department of Psychology in 2008, she has distinguished herself through progressive leadership – as faculty member, department chair, associate dean and most recently as interim dean since June 2025.
In December, Dr. Price presented her vision for the college at a faculty and staff town hall. The response was overwhelmingly positive, with exceptional consensus across all stakeholder groups – a clear testament to the confidence she has earned within CAHS.
Her appointment reflects not only her demonstrated effectiveness in roles of increasing responsibility and commitment to leadership development, but also the remarkable support she has garnered from the CAHS community and my own confidence in her leadership over these past seven months.
Please join me in congratulating Dean Price as she continues to advance the mission of our College of Arts, Humanities, & Social Sciences.
Go Chargers!
Dave
Dr. David Puleo
Provost and Executive Vice President for Academic Affairs
