On this episode of Deans Counsel, moderators Ken Kring and Dave Ikenberry speak with John Clarke, the inaugural dean of the School of Business and Leadership and a professor of business at DePauw University. While DePauw is one of the older universities in the US, its School of Business was just founded in 2023.
John previously served as associate dean for academic operations at Tulane’s Freeman School, where he was integral in developing educational programs and corporate partnerships. Prior to Tulane, Clarke was the assistant dean for strategic initiatives at the Gies College of Business at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.

•how he's been energized by this unique and uncommon opportunity

•why it's interesting to advance business in a liberal arts institution
•motivating faculty to engage in a startup effort
