Daniel Forbes


Department: Philosophy

I have served on CAPC for about a year now, and currently serve on the Graduate Programs subcommittee. In the past year this subcommittee has been diligently working on approving changes to the many graduate programs that are actively responding to the changing demands of the job market and working to provide unique educational opportunities at WCU. The subcommittee also has been hard at work developing and refining policies for the graduate school that better serve the needs of our graduate students, who more than ever are coming from more diverse backgrounds and experiencing new career challenges. As an educator that teaches general education, upper-division undergraduate, and core graduate-level courses in my department, I am very aware of the differences in needs between our undergraduate and graduate students, and how important it is to have programs and policies that address the needs of graduate students who are changing careers and juggling the challenges and responsibilities of their work, their family, and their education. I’m pleased and proud to be involved in this important university work that contributes to improving the value of an education at WCU, and would very much like to continue to contribute in this capacity.

Kuhio Walters


Department: English

As a CAPC proxy and contributing member of the newly formed Program Review subcommittee, I am becoming familiar with WCU’s policies and procedures for curricular development and assessment. Also, as scheduler for the English Department, I have gained familiarity with many issues of concern to CAPC. Overall, I am committed to a curriculum that is designed, driven, and assessed by faculty, and if elected, I will pour my energy and enthusiasm into this important work.
