Camille McKayle Named Interim Dean of Science and Mathematics

Aug. 12, 2008 – Camille McKayle, Ph.D., has been named Interim Dean of Science and Mathematics at the University of the Virgin Islands. McKayle returns to UVI from two years of service at the National Science Foundation (NSF), where she served as program officer for NSF's Historically Black Colleges and Universities Undergraduate Program. Prior to her service at NSF, she was an assistant professor of mathematics at Lafayette College, Lehigh University and the UVI, before being promoted to a tenure position as associate professor of mathematics at UVI.
