They worked tirelessly to prepare a thoughtful, deliberate, unbiased, and thorough report. Their dedication to the School of Arts and Sciences is deeply appreciated.<\/p>\n<p>I am sharing the report now because I know that many faculty members and students are eager to see it. Please know that reaching a final decision on the changes called for in the report will take some additional time. The Provost and I plan to give the report the serious review it deserves and seek advice and counsel from the Homewood Academic Council, the Krieger School\u2019s vice deans, and other involved parties.<\/p>\n<p>We will consider carefully all of the committee\u2019s recommendations and options in order to determine the best path forward for the humanities in the Krieger School.\u00a0 However, consistent with the report, we would like to provide reassurance that departmental closure will not be considered.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to completing this important process and want to reiterate that we are committed to maintaining and enhancing the robust humanities scholarship that thrives here at Johns Hopkins.<\/p>\n<p>Sincerely,<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Beverly Wendland, James B.
