Dear Colleagues:<\/p>\n

This Friday\u2019s (September 22<\/strong>) Friday Public Affairs Lunch will feature a speaker whom I am sure we will all be glad to see \u2013 Interim\u00a0President<\/strong>\u00a0of Case Western Reserve University\u00a0Greg Eastwood<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Dr. Eastwood will share his thoughts on\u00a0\u201cThe Interim Period: Tasks for Today and Ideas for the Future.\u201d<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0I imagine he will ask for some of the audience\u2019s thoughts also, as he has proven a very good listener in the forums in which I have seen him.<\/p>\n

The Friday lunch will meet, in Adelbert Hall, in the Toepfer Room from\u00a012:30 \u2013 1:30 p.m<\/strong>..\u00a0 We may have to move some chairs around a bit to accommodate the crowd. \u00a0While people bring their own sandwiches, beverages (mostly coffee and tea) are kindly provided by the Office of University Communications, and cookies by kind supporters of the lunch.<\/p>\n

I very much look forward to the discussion.<\/p>\n

All the best,
\nJoe White<\/p>\n

He then served two years on the Clinical Investigation Service at the Philadelphia Naval Hospital. Subsequently, he held faculty appointments at\u00a0Harvard Medical School<\/a>\u00a0and the\u00a0University of Massachusetts Medical School<\/a>, where he was director of the gastroenterology section and associate dean for admissions. Before coming to Syracuse, Dr. Eastwood was dean of the\u00a0Medical College of Georgia<\/a>\u00a0in Augusta.<\/p>\n

Over the past 15 years, Dr. Eastwood\u2019s professional interests have included the responsibilities of academic health centers to the health of the community, the role of leadership in academic health centers, bioethics, and ethics of academic health organizations.
