There's a tiny baby deer sleeping in the grass outside my office. I considered inviting him to the New Student Orientation taking place right now, but he might need a few more years before he's ready. #iueast #wildlife #richmondin #redwolves

Loved having the opportunity to connect with other academic leaders at the annual ACAD conference last week. Sometimes it helps to step back from the day to day to think about the big picture of higher education. #academicsky #acad #highereducation #university #college

Did you know that US News ranked the IU East psychology program as #6 among online psychology programs? Also, our online BS in business administration, a collaborative of IU’s regionals, ranked #8. That's worth celebrating! https://buff.ly/4avt0Zi #iueast #iue #redwolves #indianauniversityeast

I am grateful to the many people who have supported me on my nearly 20 year journey at Saginaw Valley State University. Although I am sad to leave, I look forward to the next adventure.
