The University of Chicago is deeply committed to rigorous inquiry, freedom of expression, and diversity of perspectives. Our scholars push disciplinary boundaries to shape and define fields, generating impactful research that helps us address some of the most pressing challenges of our time. We also deliver a transformative educational experience to our students and benefit from their rich contributions to our academic community.

 

As provost, I strive to uphold the University’s core values to advance the academic eminence of our institution and its scholars. The Office of the Provost aids in this work by providing the infrastructure and resources needed to support our exceptional academic and research programs.

 

It is a privilege to serve as provost and collaborate with faculty, deans, students, staff, and University leadership to advance our shared pursuit of academic excellence across all modes of inquiry.
