USC professor named business school dean
USC professor James G. Ellis will be the next dean of the USC Marshall School of Business, campus officials said. The appointment, effective immediately, is for a five-year term.
Ellis, a USC professor for 10 years and a vice provost for globalization, replaces interim Dean Thomas Gilligan at the business school, which enrolls nearly 5,600 undergraduate and graduate students. Ellis is a former executive with Broadway department stores and the American Porsche Design company.
