From August 2007 to August 2013 I served as chair of the chemistry department, in which capacity I had overall responsibility for all department operations. The following are some select accomplishments for the chemistry department as a unit and for me as chair over the time I have served as chair.

• The chemistry undergraduate program experienced high growth with 165 chemistry majors registered in fall 2013, up from 110 in fall 2007.

• The numbers of general and organic chemistry lecture and lab sections being offered in 2011 are at all-time highs. In fall 2010 we implemented night labs in organic chemistry for the first time.

• The chemistry graduate program remained stable with approximately 100 PhD students registered. In 2010-2011 we awarded 21 graduate degrees, of which 15 were PhDs.

• Research productivity of the faculty remained high and steady at approximately 100 peer-reviewed publications and $4.6 million in research expenditures per year.

• The overall number of chemistry T/TT faculty held steady at 22-23 and the number of non-TT faculty held steady at 12 since 2007. Classified staff grew from 10 in 2009 to 12 in 2011 to meet service course demands associated with increased enrollment.

• The number of undergraduate SCH taught in chemistry rose while I was chair. In fall 2010 chemistry taught 13,670 SCH for undergraduate classes, up from 11,124 in fall 2007, an increase of 22 percent over three years.

• Since 2007 I oversaw the hiring of four new T/TT faculty including three new assistant professors (Anker, Tennyson and Whitehead) and one new full professor with tenure (Thrasher). I also oversaw the hiring of four new non-TT faculty (Schroeder, Heltzel, Hickman and Wetzler) and several staff (new and replacements).

• I was chair when four cases of promotion to associate professor with granting of tenure and four cases of promotion to full professor were considered

• Among the department activities / functions for which I was partially or solely responsible are the following: assign / approve all faculty goals and workload, evaluate all faculty and some staff, oversee all department course scheduling and teaching assignments including graduate student teaching assignments, manage department space assignments, manage building renovations, make purchasing decisions for teaching labs and department research infrastructure, make department committee assignments, and

manage department budgets. Each summer since 2009 I prepared a department annual report, a copy of which will be provided upon request.

From August 2005 to August 2007 I served as Interim Associate Dean of the Clemson University Graduate School, where I was responsible for all aspects of graduate student admissions and recruitment at Clemson University. I oversaw a staff of six admissions counselors and two IT staff. PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT ACTIVITIES In March 5-7 2014 I attended Maximizing your Leadership Potential, a leadership development program offered by the Center for Creative Leadership in Greensboro NC. The three-day program is designed to immerse participants in four fundamental areas: Self-awareness; Learning agility; Communication; and Influence.
