    • 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: Sports Medicine

I am in my 20th year as a faculty member at WCU. I have served previous terms on CAPC and am eager to provide service to this committee and the university again. I have experience as a department chair, program coordinator, policies committee member, and graduate committee member that will allow me to provide insight and expertise as a member of CAPC.

Marjorie K Ellis


Department: KIN

I am an associate professor in the department of kinesiology with an interest in new course development, especially within the undergraduate program. I have previous experience on the receiving end of CAPC with respect to the new program developments of ASL as a foreign language option and the ASL culture cluster. I would like to use my background and expertise in program development, pedagogy, and diversity to help ensure that undergraduate programs at WCU remain exemplary, especially new and revised programs. I am especially interested in being a part of the Undergraduate CAPC committee. Thank you.
