Recent developments
The current president of The New School is former U.S. Senator Bob Kerrey (D-NE)， who assumed his role in 2000. Kerrey drew mixed praise and criticism for his divisive streamlining of the university， as well as censure for his support of the 2003 invasion of Iraq， generally opposed by the university“s traditionally left-wing faculty. In 2004， Kerrey appointed Arjun Appadurai as provost. Appadurai resigned as provost in early 2006， but retains a tenuredfaculty position at The New School. He was succeeded by Joseph Westphal， yet on December 8， President Kerrey announced that Westphal was stepping down to accept a position in President Barack Obama‘s Department of Defense transition team. Kerrey announced that he would temporarily take on the duties of provost， but later appointed Tim Marshall， Dean of Parsons The New School for Design， as Interim Provost through June 2010. On May 7， 2009， Kerrey announced he would fulfill his Presidency at the University through the end of his current term and has expressed his intent to leave office in June 2011.
