-Major Accomplishments at Cal U: College of S&T Teaching/Learning Paradigm: When hired as dean, my college: 1. Was not well-aligned with the Cal U historic (160 year) mission in teaching excellence (perfunctory faculty evaluations at all levels including the dean s office), 2. With exception of the Eberly Science & Technology Center, had extremely poor teaching/learning classroom and laboratory facilities, and 3. Had experienced a 13-year decline in undergraduate enrollment. My strategic goal: Change the teaching/learning paradigm in S&T by: 1. Re-focusing our primary mission to teaching and student learning, 2. Developing a more effective faculty evaluation system including the use of qualitative and quantitative student opinion of teaching performance, 3. Hiring new faculty who valued teaching, 4. Better communicating expectations for tenure & promotion, and 5. Implementing a strategic facility enhancement program to develop modern classrooms and laboratories that not only improved productivity but also required the integration of experiential (active) teaching methodologies to improve student learning. S&T Enrollment Growth: Achieved a 12-year 74.6% increase in undergraduate enrollment (1,432 to 2,500 headcount); 1,068 additional students. Realized a 52.9% rate of undergraduate enrollment growth; over two times greater than all undergraduate growth in general (24.7%) during the past six years. Realized an undergraduate enrollment growth rate almost four times that of the combined growth of the colleges of Liberal Arts and Education/Human Services (14%) during the past six years. Dual Enrollment Cal U in the High School (CUHS) Program: Managed operations for 8 years (2000 2007) Evolved program from small scale department to university-wide operation. Developed standard operation and evaluation procedures for participating H.S. teachers. Developed a union/management approved revenue distribution plan (50% to departmental budgets, 25% to certification and Article 12 evaluations of H.S. faculty, and 25% to H.S. professional development projects aimed at better aligning H.S. and University courses). Developed and conducted successful CUHS Summer Institutes with H.S. and Cal U faculty. Increased annual direct revenue from $18,725 (2000) to $284,353 (2007); $1,209,085 total with over $600K applied to support participating University academic department budgets. Increased annual Student Credit Hours generated from 28.47 (2000) to 375.7 (2007); generating 1,598 total Student Credit Hours. Productivity Enhancements/PA State System Performance Funding: Met or exceeded EVERY faculty productivity target assigned my college during the past 12 years. 3

Assisted in team management efforts to secure Performance Funding from the PA State System of Higher Education. Helped to earn over $21.5 million from 2004 to 2009 due in part to: o Improvements in faculty productivity, o Reductions in instructional costs, o Improvements in 4 and 6 year graduation rates o Increases in the number of degrees awarded. o Progress in hiring greater numbers of minority faculty/staff. o Progress in hiring more faculty with terminal degrees. Developed eight large-format math/science/technology teaching learning STUDIO facilities (with six additional facilities in the planning phase) to improve faculty productivity AND also support active learning methods designed to improve student learning. Assisted in team management efforts to successfully flatten the university schedule to reduce the number of course sections offered in high-density time slots to permit more sections for student enrollment. Result: increase in 4-year and 6-year graduation rates in baccalaureate degree programs (fall 2003 to present). Assisted with team management efforts to better align curriculum with a new PA State System funding formula which provides greater financial rewards for enrollments in upper level undergraduate classes as well as high cost and graduate programs. Instituted a productivity enhancement effort that reduced teaching overload costs by over $200K per year through restructured internship supervision and re-formatted lecture/lab delivery formats in selected S&T programs. A portion of cost savings from these efforts were plowed back to better support academic programs (additional department secretarial support and on-going budget enhancements for instrumentation/facility upgrades -- 2000). Proposed (fall 2005) a real-time decision-making productivity S/F Ratio prototype tool which eventually evolved into our currently used FTE and S/F ratio tools for schedule development (approved and implemented) Proposed and developed an Internship Intent Procedure as a lead indicator for controlling faculty overload costs related to internship FTE (approved and implemented 2008). Developed the Guskin Undergraduate Student Assistant (USA) model to support large format integrated studio-type teaching environments where no graduate programs exist to provide GA s.

Accreditation: Note: Only one program (Baccalaureate in Nursing) was accredited when I arrived at Cal U in January of 2000. 7

Currently have achieved 10 of 12 eligible program accreditations for an 83% college-wide accreditation rate. Managed successful initial and on-going accreditation efforts for baccalaureate programs in Nursing (CCNE), Travel & Tourism Studies (TedQual), Electrical Engineering Technology (TAC of ABET), Computer Science (CAC of ABET), Computer Engineering Technology (TAC of ABET), Computer Information Systems (CAC of ABET), Technology Management (ATMAE), Graphics/Multimedia Technology (AACGC), Parks/Recreation Management (NRPA), and Technology Education (NCATE). Other initial accreditation efforts on-going for Business Administration (AACSB) and Chemistry (ACS site visit expected spring 2012). Most recent re-accreditation (fall 2011) visit for CS and CIS programs by CAC of ABET was remarkable in that the preliminary findings were zero concerns, zero weaknesses, and zero deficiencies. In my 22-years of experience in program accreditations, we have never received such a positive report from ABET. Drs. Anthony Pyzdrowski (CS) and Lisa Kovalchick (CIS) did a wonderful job with the self-studies and preparing for this dual program visit. Direct involvement in many efforts, particularly with CAC and TAC of ABET. Review and edit self-studies. (ongoing) Re-write response reports as needed. (ongoing) Prepare detailed annual College Accreditation budget requests.
