Perri joined the college's faculty in 1990. A professor of clinical and health psychology, his research has focused on obesity, including current studies on managing obesity in rural communities. He has held several administrative positions in the college.


A national search was conducted for the dean's position. Perri was one of two candidates invited for campus interviews, the other being Dr. Marc Schenker, a professor and center director at the University of California at Davis.
