Peter Englin has been appointed dean of students, effective Oct. 6. He had served as interim dean of students since July 2000.

Englin served as associate dean of students since 1999. He has held several other positions at Iowa State, including coordinator of residence life (1991-99) and residence marketing and conference coordinator (1989-91). Englin earned a B.S. in zoology and an M.A. in counseling and guidance, both from North Dakota State. He received a Ph.D. in hotel, restaurant, institution management and family consumer science education from Iowa State this year.

The dean of students oversees such units as student activities, student government, tutoring services and recreation services, and also works closely with a variety of student groups, including Greek organizations, off-campus students and non-traditional students. Iowa State's former dean of students, Kathleen MacKay, stepped down in July 2000.
