Candidate Statement on Commitment to Service

I will commit fully to the service load associated with faculty senate leadership. I believe my previous work as chair of the senate speaks for itself.

Candidate Statement on Multi-Campus Shared Governance

Again, I believe my previous work as chair exemplifies my vision for Washington State University—one campus, geographically dispersed, that supports and exercises the right to academic freedom for all faculty regardless of where they happen to work.
