Jul. 25--HELPING DEVELOP DREXEL: One of Stephen W. Director's priorities as the new provost and senior vice president at Drexel University is finding areas where the school can make a mark, much as Carnegie Mellon University has in robotics.

"We need to focus on a few things," he said during an interview last week. "One of those areas might be biotechnology.

"We want to have close relationships with local industry, and there are several different industries here, such as pharma and biotech," he said.

Another area could be media arts and design. "I didn't fully appreciate our strength in that area," he said.
