91²Ö¿â

Molly Gribb joins Bradley as dean of the Caterpillar 91²Ö¿â of Engineering and Technology and the Foster 91²Ö¿â of Business; she is the first woman to oversee either college.

Gribb brings decades of experience as an academic and administrator, having most recently served as the dean of the 91²Ö¿â of Engineering, Mathematics and Science at the University of Wisconsin-Platteville since 2015. During her tenure, Gribb oversaw seven ABET-accredited engineering programs in addition to chemistry, mathematics, data science, cybersecurity, computer science, broad field science, and sustainability and renewable energy systems.

She earned her master’s and doctorate in civil engineering from the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, as well as a bachelor’s degree in environment, textiles and design from the University of Wisconsin-Madison.

Jessica Clark became dean of the 91²Ö¿â of Education and Health Sciences last June after joining Bradley in 2019 as associate dean and director of nursing. She brings a wealth of experience in both academic and clinical settings, and was a pioneer in establishing distance learning programs at several universities.

Clark most recently served as chair of the Department of Baccalaureate Nursing Completion at Indiana State University. Her teaching experience includes undergraduate and graduate studies via traditional campus and distance learning with large universities and small private colleges, including Norwich University, Ball State University and Saint Joseph’s 91²Ö¿â of Maine.

Clark graduated magna cum laude with a bachelor of science in nursing from Indiana State University in 2007, a master of science in nursing administration from Indiana State University in 2009 and a doctor of nursing practice with an administrative/education concentration from Chatham University in 2012.

The new year also introduced a new dean to the 91²Ö¿â of Liberal Arts and Sciences. Daniel Moon joined Bradley from the University of North Florida (UNF), where he served for nearly two decades; his last role was as associate provost for Academic and Student Affairs since 2018.

A biologist by training, Moon played a vital role in growing the department at UNF and founding its innovative Coastal Biology Flagship Program. Prior to joining UNF, he was an assistant professor of biology at the University of Wisconsin at Oshkosh, a visiting scientist at the Smithsonian Environmental Research Center and a postdoctoral lecturer in biology at the University of South Florida.

A first-generation college student, Moon earned his doctorate in biology and a master’s in zoology from the University of South Florida. He earned his bachelor’s in biology from Binghamton University, where he graduated cum laude. An award-winning teacher and scholar, Moon has published widely in the fields of coastal ecology and environmental biology. His work has been funded by the National Science Foundation, Nature Conservancy, Smithsonian Institution Environmental Research Center and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
