WSU Interim President Dan Bernardo has named Ron Mittelhammer, dean of CAHNRS, as interim co-provost of the university. Mittelhammer, in turn, has named Kimberlee Kidwell, executive associate dean of CAHNRS, as acting dean for the college. Kidwell filled in as leader of CAHNRS last winter when Mittelhammer was out for medical reasons.
Barbara Rasco, a Washington State University professor, has been named director of the School of Food Science, a joint program between WSU and the University of Idaho.
