I am motivated to join IUBSC because I enjoy shared governance and how it can create partnerships and collaborations between different areas. Sometimes it feels like we can be siloed in our respective departments, but by participating in IUBSC, I feel that I could be connected to other facets of the university and not only see the big picture, but also what are important issues the university and my colleagues in other areas are facing and work to develop change for the better. I have worked in student affairs for nearly a decade, and in that time 2 things have remained a constant that I am passionate about: supporting students and advocating for others. Although I have not served on IUSBC, I was in a similar role at another university serving as a senator for University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point’s Faculty/Staff Senate.
