On behalf of Dean Brian Schriner and CARTA, welcome all to Fall 2022…<!–

August 22, 2022 


Dear CARTA Colleagues, 

I want to take this opportunity to welcome you to the Fall 2022 semester and to thank you for everything you do to make CARTA so special!

As we begin AY 22-23, please take a few minutes to review our updated homepage, carta.fiu.edu. There you will find links to our academic programs, faculty and student resources, our events and activities, and profiles of our new faculty. You will also find our strategic plan, confirming our commitment to our shared mission, vision, and goals. 

I’m very proud to report that this past academic year, all CARTA academic programs ranked in the top 70 for US public universities. Our School of Architecture is ranked #16 and our Arts and Humanities programs #55 by QS World Ranking, and our School of Communication + Journalism #70 by Academic Ranking of World Universities. I’m also pleased to report that CARTA was identified by the World Universities with Real Impact (WURI) as one of the Most Innovative Colleges (#15 US Public, #31 Overall US, and #101-200 Worldwide). 

This past year, our students also continued to be at or near the top of the University’s FTIC student retention and time-to-graduation rates, and in job placement for our disciplines in the State of Florida State University System (SUS). These remarkable accomplishments are a testament to the exceptional leadership of our academic department chairs, the hard work of our professional staff, and the expertise and unwavering commitment of our faculty to creating nurturing, learning communities for our students by offering them a 21c curricula focused on our students’ goals and aspirations. Thank you and congratulations! 

This year, we will also celebrate several key milestones: This is the first full year of our newly named Herbert and Nicole Wertheim School of Music & Performing Arts (The Wertheim). The naming gift was the largest gift to a school of music in the history of the State of Florida. This year also marks the 25th Anniversary of the School of Architecture, the 20th Anniversary of our FIU Wertheim Marching Band, and the 10th Anniversary of our Lillian Lodge Kopenhaver Center for the Advancement of Women in Communication. And, of course, our FIU is celebrating its 50th anniversary this year with several events throughout the Fall and Spring semesters. 

I would like to take this opportunity to acknowledge our faculty colleagues who are serving in leadership positions within the Office of the Dean. These accomplished professionals work tirelessly to provide service to our students, faculty, staff, patrons, and visitors. 

  • Katie Rothfield, Assistant Dean of Students 
    Katie’s primary duties are to oversee the College’s student success initiatives. 
  • Marilys Nepomechie, Associate Dean of Faculty + Program Development 
    Marilys’ primary duties are to oversee the hiring, development, assessment, and assignment of the College’s faculty, and the coordination of the assessment of the College’s academic programs. 
  • John Stuart, Associate Dean of Cultural + Community Engagement 
    John’s primary duties are to oversee the administration, growth, and promotion of the SOA | Miami Beach Urban Studios and CARTA | Mana Wynwood. 

To echo Provost Bejar, we cannot overstate our gratitude to you our faculty, for your deep commitment to research and creative excellence and impact, meaningful student engagement and support, and substantive community engagement aligned with our FIU values. Please review Dr. Bejar’s message from August 19, discussing some important updates and information, including:  

  • FIU Panthers Protecting Panthers. In order to mitigate the impact of COVID-19, FIU will be adhering to updated guidelines issued by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). The university will no longer be using the P3 app to report COVID symptoms or infections. The P3 app and the Panthers Protecting Panthers webpage are being updated and will continue to serve as a resource with relevant information for the university community on the importance of Healthy Living.   

  • Syllabus Guidance. Your syllabi are your most critical tool for communicating early and often in the semester with your students on an array of important issues. To that end:  
    • Please remove the mention of the P3 app from your syllabus and follow your established attendance and makeup policies as they relate to excused absences.   
    • We ask faculty to continue to review their course materials and seek support from the Center for the Advancement of Teaching as appropriate. CAT has important information, recommendations and sample syllabi related to House Bill 7 (which informs the BOG Regulation 10.005). On August 19th, Tallahassee U.S. District Judge Mark Walker temporarily blocked HB 7. However, the judgment is not applicable to FIU.  

We recognize that even as we begin this new semester with genuine excitement in welcoming our students and beginning our engagement with them as they chart their professional and career paths, there are some questions and clarifications you may need in order to launch a seamless and successful semester. Please know that we are here to support you.   

In closing, I invite you to join our college-wide faculty and staff meetings via Zoom every Thursday from 9 a.m. to 10 a.m.  You will be receiving a calendar invite this week for the entire year. We began these meetings in March 2020, and they provide us with an excellent opportunity to engage with one another, ask questions, exchange information, and celebrate accomplishments.  

Additionally, please follow CARTA and our academic units, institutes, and initiatives on our various social media channels. Every Monday morning, I invite you to join me for “Got a Minute? with Dean Schriner” for a quick 60-second overview of the week ahead and the latest happenings across the college. 

A new semester brings a lot of excitement.  I, like you, am looking forward to this year being our best one yet! Please know that I remain humbled and honored to serve as Dean of such a distinguished and engaged faculty and professional staff.  Thank you. 

In the Spirit of the Blue + Gold, 

Brian Schriner
Dean
