On March 16, NC State Extension Director and Associate Dean Dr. Richard Bonanno held a public forum as part of his five-year review. Dr. Bonanno presented on NC State Extension’s activities during his first five-year term and shared a vision for its future. After the forum, Internal and external stakeholders were encouraged to provide feedback.

Based on the overwhelming support from on- and off-campus faculty and staff and our external stakeholders, CALS Dean Richard Linton is pleased to announce that an offer for an additional five-year term has been offered to and accepted by Dr. Bonanno. Dr. Bonanno’s second five-year term will begin July 1.
