DePaul's Ombuds Retires, But University Has No Succession Plan

Craig Mousin, who founded the Ombuds program for faculty and staff at the private university in Chicago in June 2001, has announced his retirement. He was a longtime member of TOA, UCOA, IOA, and the annual Midwest gathering of academic Ombuds. Mousin is also a immigrant and refugee activist and plans to continue teaching at DePaul for at least another year. Meanwhile, the university has paused the Ombuds program and has yet to announce a plan.
