Dean's Speaker External Request Form (virtual appearances)

While social distancing and other COVID-19 events remain present, the CLASS dean will still be available to speak, but all events will be held in a virtual format. Due to the many demands on the dean’s time, we request that you submit this form so that he can manage the commitments and schedule his participation. This form will assist our staff in coordinating the dean's participation at your event.  This is a two-part process.  You must complete this step prior to completing the final event details.

*Denotes a required field - We will contact you should there be any questions regarding entry of your event

In order to best accommodate your request, please submit the requested information at least 4-6 weeks prior to the date of the event. If your request is accepted by Interim Dean Daniel P. O'Connor, you will be contacted in 7-10 business days.
