year . The past year has been a time of growth, development, and
new initiatives along with the fine tuning of new and existing
processes. Brenda Bagwell Anne OBryan We remain committed to
working tirelessly to represent this leadership team and the
University in such a way that makes us all proud. I am extremely

Our success as a team is tied directly to the individual
contributions of Dr. Brenda Bagwell, Nathan Braun, CherylAnn
Farrell, Dr. Anne OBryan, and Dr. Melanie Shaw and I commend them
