Rick Burgess, Vice President for Facilities and Campus Services, recently announced that Keith Barton will serve as the Associate Vice President for Facilities Management and Contract College Facilities.

A Cornell alumnus, Keith returned to Cornell last summer as the Senior Director for Contract College Facilities after completing a 24 year career in the Navy. Since his arrival, he rapidly established himself as a talented leader who works with campus partners to find creative solutions.

In conjunction with this leadership transition, Paul Heliseva has been appointed as Operations Director, and Jessie Wells as Zone Facilities Director for the Contract College Zone. 

Congratulations, Jessie, Paul and Keith!
