Dr. Melvin James

We would like to thank Dr. James for his 37 years of service. In December of 2020, Dr. James retired from USF. He was integral to the design of Health Professions Advising at USF. In addition, he served as an adjunct professor teaching courses in the Judy Genshaft Honors College and portfolio courses for pre-health students. At USF, Dr. James was an expert in the area of student success, assessment, diversity and strategic planning. Congratulations to Dr. James on an amazing career and we wish him the best of luck with everything that he will continue to accomplish during his retirement!
