Rules for the Election

    • The faculty member elected to this seat will complete the second year of a two-year term for a CAS representative seat that was not filled last year.
    • Faculty from the departments of Chemistry, Foreign Languages, and Psychology may not be nominated for this seat since those departments have continuing representation on the committee.
    • Each department can have at most one representative on the Sabbatical and Educational Leave Committee.
    • Membership on the committee is restricted to the following structure: 4 faculty representatives from the College of Arts and Sciences, 1 faculty representative from each of the Schools of Health Sciences, Education, Music, and Business and Public Affairs, and 1 faculty representative from the non-classroom faculty.
    • The election is decided by a plurality of those casting votes unless such results violate the previous rules or the number of candidates does not exceed the number of positions to fill. In the later case, each candidate will be voted on by an approve/disapprove ballot.
    • 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.
    • Seats with longer terms will be filled first.

Department: Biology

Since coming to West Chester, I have been the recipient of a full, 1 year, Sabbatical leave, plus an additional (NIH funded), 1 year educational leave. I am profoundly aware of how beneficial these experiences were to all aspects of professional activity. In particular, teaching, as well as later research activity especially benefited from these experiences. I am happy to fill an open slot on this committee to facilitate the awarding of additional sabbaticals (if possible) when appropriate.
