Re: Assistant Chancellor Julia Armstrong-Zwart leaving campus
Dear Campus Colleagues:
This is to inform you that Julia Armstrong-Zwart, assistant chancellor for human
resources and assistant vice chancellor for faculty relations has announced her decision
to leave UC Santa Cruz. The day-to-day operations of Academic Human Resources, Staff
Human Resources, EEO/Affirmative Action and Title IX will continue under the very
capable direction of Directors Barbara Brogan, Willeen McQuitta, Patti Hiramoto and
Title IX Officer Rita Walker, respectively. Further information regarding management
realignments will be addressed in a separate memorandum within the next few days.
We will miss Julia's thoughtful counsel, and we wish her the very best in her new
endeavors. During her nearly 20 years at UC Santa Cruz, Julia has made broad and
significant contributions in positions at this campus, advising several chancellors
and executive vice chancellors on faculty relations, academic and staff human resources,
and campus welfare. Her first position at UCSC in 1981 was Special Assistant to the
Chancellor for Matters of Informal Grievance and Affirmative Action and later as
the campus' first Ombudsman. In 1983 she stepped down as Ombudsman to assume the
position of Assistant Academic Vice Chancellor for Faculty Relations, continuing
to serve as Special Assistant to the Chancellor for Affirmative Action. In addition
to her work as Assistant Vice Chancellor for Faculty Relations, she has served as
Assistant Chancellor for Human Resources since 1991, with responsibility for the
offices of Academic Human Resources, EEO/Affirmative Action, Labor Relations, Staff
Human Resources, and Title IX.
In addition to her dedicated service to UCSC, Julia has frequently been called upon
to play key roles in University-wide initiatives and committees on issues of faculty
welfare, affirmative action, diversity, the University of California Retirement System,
and much more.
Please join us in thanking Julia for her outstanding service to this campus and to
the University of California.
