Nadine M. Bean


Department: Graduate Social Work

I am just completing my first, three year term as a Faculty Senate, At Large Representative. I have really enjoyed serving in the Senate and wish to continue to do so. In the three years that I have been involved in the Senate, I have served on the Executive Committee for two, served as Chair of the Curriculum and Research Committee for one year and have worked to develop a Mentoring Protocol in Research and Scholarship for probationary faculty members. I wish to continue my work in this area, which dovetails, perfectly, with my work as Vice President and Program Chair of the WCU Faculty Research Consortium. The Consortium was formed to promote and support opportunities for faculty development in scholarship and research actitivities at this university, even though WCU is primarily a teaching institution.
