Service to College Community --
In addition to serving on a number of committees, I was a member
of the Faculty Senate (2001-2003), served as the faculty advisor
to the Independent Innovators and Marketing Association (1999 -
2004) and the Honor Board (2000 - 2001). I have conducted
review sessions for the Major Field Test since 1998 and have
co-administered this test to seniors in the School of Business
(1998-2000). Moreover, I have been involved with a number of
student sponsored activities such as judging the annual lip-sync
contest (1999, 2000), Oktoberfest Spirit Leader (2001),
Athletic-Academic Recognition Banquet, and the Project Success
dinner. |
