From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Georgetown College, infrequently Georgetown College of Arts and Sciences, is the oldest school within Georgetown University in Washington, D.C. The College is the largest undergraduate school at Georgetown, and until the founding of the Medical School in 1850, was the only higher education division. In 1821, the school granted its first graduate degrees, though the graduate portion has since divided as the Georgetown University Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. The Georgetown Public Policy Institute, which does confer graduate degrees, is an independent Government department and Economics department initiative with its own dean.
Jane Dammen McAuliffe is Dean of the College. She will be leaving this post effective 1 July 2008 to become the President of Bryn Mawr College. Theology professor Chester Gillis will serve as interim Dean until the search committee, led by University President John J. DeGioia and Provost James J. O'Donnell are able to locate a permanent replacement. Alone, the college accounts for over 3,200 students, 30 academic majors with 23 departments.[1] This forms the core of the undergraduate population. The School of Languages and Linguistics, organized in 1949, has been folded into the College, and is now the Faculty of Languages and Linguistics.
