Anil K. Puri was named dean of Cal State Fullerton’s School of Business Administration and Economics last week. Puri, who had been acting dean since June, is also director of the university’s Institute for Economic and Environmental Studies. A resident of Santa Ana, Puri joined the university’s faculty in 1977. He fills the post vacated last year by Ephraim P. Smith, who was appointed vice president for academic affairs.
