A "Victory Party" to honor Dean for Graduate Students Isaac M. Colbert upon his retirement will be held Tuesday, May 29 at Walker Memorial. The party will run from 4 to 6 p.m.
Colbert is concluding three decades of achievement in Institute administration. Starting as a consultant in human resources in 1977, he has served a number of different roles at MIT, eventually being named dean in 1999. In that capacity, he led efforts to develop MIT's graduate community through such innovative programs as the Graduate Student Life Grants.
