“I thank Dr. Easter for her leadership as Founding Dean,” said President Miller. “I know that the Batten Honors College will remain in outstanding hands with Dr. Malone.”
Dr. Malone is in his 15th year at VWU, having served as Professor of Theatre and the Founding Dean of the University's Susan S. Goode School of Arts and Humanities. In the latter capacity, he assisted with fundraising and served as faculty liaison for construction of the Susan S. Goode Fine and Performing Arts Center and the renovation of Susan T. Beverly Hall.
