Department: Nursing

It would like to continue to serve the faculty and students at WCU by becoming a member of the Sabbatical and Leave committee. As someone who has been awarded a sabbatical, I recognize the importance of faculty having this valuable time for scholarly projects and pursuits. My experience serving faculty includes two terms on Faculty Senate and two terms serving on the University TEP committee.
