Department: Nutrition

I would appreciate your support for the opportunity to serve West Chester University on CAPC. As a faculty member in the Department of Nutrition, College of Health Sciences, I have developed several courses including online and traditional formats throughout the last eight years. My experience includes developing and gaining approval for graduate and undergraduate courses. I would like to use my experience and gain valuable knowledge from CAPC to contribute to course and curriculum development and academic policies of the University.

Marjorie K Ellis


Department: Kinesiology

I am very humbled to have this opportunity to be considered to represent the College of Health Science on the CAPC committee. Over the past six years I have had many experiences working with CAPC ranging from course development, distance education programs, changing/upgrading present programs, to new program development. All of these opportunities have led to great insight on the intricacies of successful program/course content. I would like to take this knowledge and experience gained and use it to share with the WCU community as a member of the CAPC committee. I greatly appreciate your consideration of my request and look forward to being a valuable member of the committee. Thank you.
