Department: Psychology

Students come to WCU with a wide variety of talents, skills, academic abilities, and strengths. I believe our curriculum and academic policies should reflect and address this variety in our attempt to prepare students for an ever-changing world. To this end, I believe that a variety of pedagogical approaches are useful as we help students meet both general and specific learning objectives. Thus, I would welcome the opportunity to serve as a member of CAPC, working with others interested in curricular and academic policy issues and serving the educational needs of our students.
