Kellie A. Page has been named director for finance and administration for Cornell's Division of Student and Academic Services. Page, who has served as the university's director of Campus Life Business Services since 2000, will assume her new post in January 2007.

"Kellie brings excellent experience and a strong understanding of our division and the university to her new responsibilities," said Susan H. Murphy, vice president for student and academic services at Cornell.

Page succeeds Edna Dugan, who is phasing into retirement. Dugan will remain part time with student and academic services, continuing her leadership of the West Campus project, academic support and strategic planning for the division.

Before coming to Cornell, Page was regional controller of Intertek Testing Services in Cortland, N.Y. She is a certified public accountant and holds a bachelor's degree in accounting from Ithaca College.
