In the Friday, Oct. 25, Dr. Theo Keith Distinguished Lecture, Dr. Donald Leo, a former UToledo professor in the College of Engineering, will give an overview of current trends in research careers and offer some advice on professional expectations based on his 25 years in higher education as a faculty member, dean and provost in public institutions of higher education.
