McCray named Associate Dean of WFU Calloway School

Gordon E. McCrayWake Forest University’s Calloway School of Business and Accountancy has appointed Gordon E. McCray an associate dean of the school.

McCray, the BellSouth Mobility Technology Associate Professor of Business, has taught information systems at the Calloway School since 1994. During his first year, he proposed a redesign of the school’s information systems curriculum that developed into an information systems degree program. In May 2002, 27 students graduated with the first information systems degrees.

“Gordon’s commitment to the Calloway School and its students is extraordinary,” said Jack Wilkerson, dean of the Calloway School. “He is an outstanding classroom instructor, a productive scholar and a thoughtful leader. He has also been instrumental in development and strategy of Wake Forest’s technology initiative.”

As associate dean, McCray will be involved in the application of technology at the Calloway School, in curriculum development, and in degree program oversight.

McCray graduated from Wake Forest in 1985 with a physics degree. He received his master’s degree in business administration from Stetson University and his doctorate from Florida State University in 1996.

The Calloway School, the largest undergraduate program at Wake Forest, is ranked 30th among all undergraduate business programs by U.S. News & World Report and its finance and accounting programs are ranked among the top 25. More than 400 students are currently enrolled in the Calloway School, which offers four-year degrees in business, analytical finance, mathematical business and information systems and a five-year program to earn a bachelor’s and master’s degree in accountancy. The Calloway School also offers a master’s degree in accountancy for students who have already earned an undergraduate degree.
