Rose Bud (White County) native Mike Casey plans to spend only about one year as interim dean of the College of Business at the University of Central Arkansas in Conway.
Casey has worked at his alma mater, UCA, since 2003 and wants to return to the classroom once a replacement for the previous dean, Pat Cantrell, is found. Cantrell chose to leave her nine-year job as dean to return to teaching.
Casey has also worked at Henderson State University in Arkadelphia, Western Illinois University in Macomb and the University of Texas of the Permian Basin in Odessa.
