Before becoming interim dean last October, Hutter had been a senior associate dean at the dental school and chairman of the department of endodontics. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania’s dental school and George Washington University, he spent 21 years in the US Navy Dental Corps before joining BU in 1997.
