Rules for the Election

    • Each department can have at most two representatives on CAPC.
    • The election is decided by a plurality of those casting votes unless such results violate the previous rule or the number of candidates does not exceed the number of positions to fill. In the later case, each candidate will be voted on by an approve/disapprove ballot.
    • Vacant seats will be filled one at a time with the current vacant seat filled by the candidate with the highest vote count. As each seat is filled, the candidate filling that seat and any other candidates from the same department as the candidate filling that seat will be disqualified. Votes cast for disqualified candidates, as just defined, will not be considered in filling remaining vacant seats.
    • Each candidate selected counts as a cast vote.
    • Members elected to at-large seats cannot be nominated for school representative seats.
    • Seats with longer terms will be filled first. In the case of an approve/disapprove ballot, candidates will be ranked according to number of approve votes.

Frauke Schnell


Department: Political Science

Over the past years I have taught several general education courses, an Honors course, a course that is part of the Holocaust Studies Program, and a new diversity course. I would like to bring these experiences, as well as my commitment to student research into CAPC.

Richard W. Voss


Department: Undergraduate Social Work

I served on CAPC over the past two years as Representative of the School of Business and Public Affairs. During my first year on CAPC I served on the Academic Policies Committee and was a member of the Diverse Communities Subcommittee. Last year I served on the General Education Committee and served as Chair of the Diverse Communities Subcommittee. These practical experiences helped me see the larger curriculum picture here at WCU. I believe these experiences have prepared me to continue to support and serve the faculty's commitment to academic excellence and integrity in a time of tremendous challenge and change. It is from this experience base and perspective that I would be willing to continue serving on this committee.
