Emory University. Student and Academic Services.

The position of Vice-President for Student and Academic Services was created in an administrative reorganization in 1969. In the years just prior to 1969, the services and activities that were to come together under the auspices of the Student and Academic Services Office had been organized in a variety of ways. These services would eventually be coordinated through the office of the Dean of Student Life, bringing together once disparate duties of Dean of Men, Dean of Women, and Dean of Student Activities. On January 16, 1969, President Sanford S. Atwood asked the support of the Executive Committee on the Board of Trustees in combining administrative responsibilities for student affairs and academic services under a new vice-presidency. The Executive Committee authorized the establishment of the administrative position Vice-President for Student and Academic Services, and approved the appointment of Thomas L. Fernandez to this new post. The Executive Committee of the Board of Trustees authorized on October 19, 1978 the establishment of the position Dean for Campus Life. After working closely with the Dean and Acting Dean for Campus Life for over a year, Dr. Fernandez accepted a new position in the School of Business and no new Vice President for Student and Academic Services was named to succeed him.
