UT hires associate dean for arts education

Hunter March, longtime professor of music education in the University of Texas’ Butler School of Music, has been appointed associate dean for arts education in the College of Fine Arts.

The newly-created deanship will focus on supporting the college’s initiatives in fine arts education and teacher training.

“Professor March is eminently well-qualified to fill this deanship,” said Douglas Dempster, dean of the College of Fine Arts. “Arts education is a vital part of the college’s public service to the State of Texas. Arguably, it’s the most urgent commitment we can make to perpetuating the art forms and disciplines to which the College of Fine Arts is dedicated.”

A 31-year veteran of teaching music education at UT, March begins his new role effective Sept. 1.
