Dean Allen Berger
The former provost and vice-president, academic, of the University of Maine at Farmington joined the University of Alberta’s Augustana Campus as Dean on August 1, 2011.
An ardent advocate for the liberal arts, Dean Berger desires that the education of the whole person be accessible to those wanting to pursue it. He prizes Augustana’s focus on undergraduate teaching and believes that a residence-based campus is the best place for this focus.
Berger began his career as a cultural anthropologist. As a full-time administrator since the mid-‘90s, he has served in the cabinets of five presidents at three post-secondary institutions. He is driven by the opportunity to galvanize a faculty and a staff around a vision, to enhance quality and excellence, and to be an agent of change for the good of all.
Berger looks forward to maintaining the close relationships between Augustana Campus, the University of Alberta, the City of Camrose and our surrounding communities. He remains committed to the strong ethic of community service that informs so many of Augustana’s programs.
Please join us in welcoming Dean Allen Berger to campus, to Camrose and to Canada.
