Rules for the Election

    • Each department can have at most two representatives on CAPC.

    • 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.

Department: Professional and Secondary Education

After a hiatus I would like to serve on CAPC again. My degree is in Curriculum and Instruction, so serving on CAPC is a good use of my time and talents. I would like to be a part of making sure that the WCU curriculum is relevant for our students and retains academic integrity.

Jane Kenney


Department: Professional and Secondary Education

I am a newly tenured faculty member in the Department of Professional and Secondary Education interested in expanding my knowledge about the university's academic curriculum and policies as well as becoming more involved in helping to maintain a strong academic program at WCU. My degree in educational psychology has provided me with a firm knowledge in research-based pedagogical practices that promote successful learning. I was a member of the Council of Professional Education (CPE) where we discussed education courses. Over the past several semesters I have incorporated a hybrid instructional approach in my classes and have focused my research on the effectiveness of online instruction and educational technology on student learning. My experience in this area will be helpful as more online courses are being developed and offered at WCU. I appreciate your support and would be honored to serve on this important committee.
