Administrative:

Ph.D. in English Program Graduate Adviser of Record

30

Began Spring 2011. Performs all duties of position including admission, advising, program-building, degree-checking, and other normal activities of the graduate program. The roles and responsibilities of the Graduate Advisor of Record (GAR) for the Ph.D. in English program, in accordance with the University GAR Handbook, support the mission of the university and reflect standards for leadership of graduate education as defined by the Council of Graduate Schools. The Council of Graduate Schools states that coordinators of graduate programs are responsible for a number of activities, such as academic advising of graduate students, admissions decisions, recommendations for allocations of fellowships and assistantships, and the appointment of faculty members to graduate student committees. The GAR communicates university-wide policies on graduate programs to the departmental faculty and communicates department decisions and recommendations to the Graduate School, through the College of Liberal and Fine Arts. In particular I instituted work that led to the awarding of two Excelencia in Education Awards (2011 and 2012); increased recruiting efforts; led to teaching observations; and that began the annual reports submitted by doctoral students. The GAR is also in charge of several annual assessment reports. Since I took over as GAR the program has graduated an average of 3-5 students per year. We have instituted the position of Placement Officer. In 2012-13 we graduated six students and admitted six. In fall 2014 we admitted five.

Director, Division of English, Classics, Philosophy, & Communication, 1994-98As Division Director for four years in a Division with five disciplines, 70 faculty, and 600 majors, I made significant new faculty hires especially for the proposed Ph.D. in English with emphasis in cross-cultural studies, carried out promotions and reviews; managed the budget; engaged in strategic planning, program development, and program review; instituted enrollment management and assessment procedures; did course scheduling; produced numerous special events including theatre residencies and distinguished professorships; worked in fundraising, including ten new scholarships and an endowment of $250,000 for the Brackenridge Distinguished Visiting Professorship in the Humanities; I personally arranged for five of the Brackenridge lecturers’ residence at UTSA. I was co-founder of the UTSA Friends of Shakespeare and dramatically expanded donor support for the UTSA Reading Series. I led the development of two new degree plans, the Ph.D. in English with emphasis in U.S. Latina/o Studies, and the B.A. in Classics. I carried out new programs to enhance faculty resources for research and innovative teaching.

Interim Dean of Graduate Studies, 1998-2001As Interim Dean of Graduate Studies at a then-emerging doctoral institution then with 34 Master’s degrees and 3 doctorates, I worked at all levels, students, faculty, Provost, President, UT System Board of Regents, and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board. I oversaw new program development and approval, program review, recruiting, admissions, retention, Graduate Council, fellowship awards, scholarship development, policy-making, catalog preparation, SACS accreditation, and other duties. In 1999-2000 I oversaw the implementation of the Ed.D. in Educational Leadership, the M.S. in Justice Policy, and the MBA Online. I also led the Colleges on the following degree proposals: the Ph.D. in Culture, Literacy and Language (approved October 26, 2000, by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board); the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and the Ph.D. in Business Administration (Approved January 15, 2002, by the Coordinating Board); the Ph.D. in English Selected (approved April 18, 2002, by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board); the Ph.D. in Bioengineering; the Ph.D. in Biology with Emphasis in Cellular and Molecular Biology; the Ph.D. in Environmental Sciences and Environmental Engineering (all approved in 2002), the Ph.D. in Music Psychology; and the M.A. in

Communication (approved Spring 2005). I chaired the committee that outlined a preliminary plan for the Life Sciences Institute between UTSA and the UTHSC. I significantly increased recruiting, including expanded fairs and visits; publications and mailings. I revised University guidelines on graduate student employment to enhance student support and developed an unprecedented level of graduate incremental tuition. I held two University-wide conferences on graduate studies, one the Graduate Student Research Conference and Competition and one the Graduate Council's Colloquium on Doctoral Studies. I doubled the OGS staff and increased the overall mission and responsibilities of the office.
