"I believe the department is in very good shape."
Wefald, who is retiring after the current academic year, added that the new A.D. will be chosen by the school's next president.
Wefald said the announcement is all part of the plan to have a "seamless transition."
"Bob is so looking forward to his new duties," he said in a telephone interview. "It's the sort of thing he's done before and he enjoys it greatly. The new president would name his own A.D. anyway."
