Assistant Professor Jeff Hemsley<http://goo.gl/L88Z6E> joins the faculty after spending the last five years at the University of Washington, earning his Ph.D. and working as a research and teaching assistant.

Assistant Professor Bryan Semaan<http://goo.gl/JfhOfj> comes to the iSchool after post-doctoral work at the University of Hawaii. He earned a Ph.D. at the University of California at Irvine.

Jeff Saltz<http://goo.gl/g8Y4nf> comes to the iSchool as a University Professor of Practice, a joint appointment with the Syracuse's College of Engineering and Computer Science. Saltz has worked closely with Syracuse University since 2008 as a member of the JPMorgan Chase project team that designed several academic programs at the University.

The three new faculty join a group of over 50 academics, researchers and professors of practice who teach courses in the iSchool's programs<http://goo.gl/HKweI4> in library science, information management, and telecommunications and network management.
