After more than four decades serving the Case Western Reserve University community, Charles Rozek, vice provost and dean of graduate studies, will retire effective June 30. Rozek has led the university’s School of Graduate Studies since 2004.

“I believe that there comes a time when fresh ideas and perspectives can enhance the progress of the university,” Rozek said. “Handing over the leadership will facilitate this enhancement.”

Charles joined the university and the department of biology at the Assistant Professor level in 1983. He established the annual graduate awards ceremony and worked to improve the experiences of both graduate students and postdocs at the university. We wish the best for Dr. Rozek during this next step in life!
