Administrative Changes
Career Services Center
Scott T. Williams, director of the University Career Center at Carnegie Mellon University, began work on Nov. 13 as executive director of UGA’s Career Services Center. He succeeded Glenn Rosenthal, who retired earlier this year.
The Career Services Center provides students with guidance and assistance in making career choices, preparing for their careers and finding employment. The center also provides job-placement assistance for alumni, and helps businesses recruit students and alumni to fill positions.
Williams had headed the Carnegie Mellon center, which provides similar services and programs, since July 1999. Previously he was director of the University of Mississippi Career Center, and assistant director of the Vanderbilt University Career Center.

Ag Experiment Stations
Robert Shulstad has been appointed assistant dean for research and assistant director of Georgia Agricultural Experiment Stations for the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences.
As assistant dean, Shulstad will assist in the preparation of the research budget, provide leadership for development, implementation and reporting of plans of work, multi-state and integrated activities.
He will represent the office at local, state and national events, serve as administrative adviser to regional research projects and assist in the recruitment of faculty and staff.

School of Accounting
Silvia A. Madeo is the new director of the J.M. Tull School of Accounting in the Terry College of Business.
Madeo has joined the Tull School from the University of Missouri at St. Louis, where she was accounting area coordinator and a professor in the School of Business Administration.
She is the fifth person, and the first woman, to serve as director of the Tull School of Accounting since the accounting program’s status was upgraded to a school within the College of Business in 1977.

Legal Career Services
Anthony E. Waller is the new assistant director of legal career services for the School of Law. His primary responsibility is career counseling, in which he will aid students with their entire job search process.
Waller will oversee the law school’s innovative PREPARE program, which provides students with career mentoring, opportunities to “shadow” professionals, informational forums and mock interviews. He will also assist in the coordination of job fairs.
Waller, who earned his law degree from UGA in 1993, was previously employed in Germantown, Md., for two years at AXIOM Systems, Inc. as a recruiter/human resources director, where he was responsible for all recruitment, hiring, placement and other human resource activities for the specialty consulting firm.
