Morton Dr. Kathleen A. Getz assumed the ofce of Mercyhurst University’s 13th president on July 12, 2021, with a level of self-confdence that belied her calm, almost serene demeanor. “I may not have been the best president for Mercyhurst at diferent times in its history, but I believe I am now,” she said in an interview last summer. “I think the partnering of Kathy Getz and Mercyhurst University will make us both better.” Getz is well known as a strategic thinker, but where she shines is in communicating her thoughts in a way that is straightforward and easily digestible. Her frst order of business is to “deeply engage” with the college community as an active listener. From there, she thinks, “we’ll need to talk about stabilizing and growing the enrollment. We’ll want to decide which new programs we should be investing in and address opportunistic challenges like planning for our Centennial. And that’s just for starters.” As for the proverbial “frst 100 days,” she said, “I will deem mine successful if we have a shared sense of how we are going to move forward to address our challenges and to inspire all of our stakeholders with optimism that the best is yet to come.” Getz comes to Mercyhurst with 18 years of senior leadership experience in major business schools, including 10 years at Catholic universities. Prior to at American University from 2006 While her senior Mercyhurst, she was dean of the Sellinger School to 2011 and chair of the Department of leadership experience of Business and Management at Loyola University Management from 1999 to 2002. She also served as and many accomplishments — Maryland, a Jesuit Catholic institution whose a professor of management at all three institutions. among them being named one of Maryland’s business school is home to nearly 2,000 students, Top 100 Women for 2018 — position her well for 55 full-time faculty, and 13 full-time staf. From “As a mission-driven, servant leader, Kathy Getz Mercyhurst’s top job, it was her connection to the 2011 to 2014, she was dean of the Quinlan holds a strong record of service to students and university’s values that most appealed to her.

Signature…… ………… Date……30.06.2021 …………………… 2 3 4 ABSTRACT This study investigated the design of play equipment for encouraging peer-to-peer social interactions amongst children with cerebral palsy aged from 4 to 6 years, as a means of developing their social competence. The focus was on developing a new conceptual model and criteria for designing this specialist play equipment and, thus, creating a level playing field for children with different manifestations of cerebral palsy. According to the statistics of the National Health Service, it is estimated that approximately 1 in 400 children is born with cerebral palsy in the UK (NHS, 2017). It is recognised that these children often have reduced social engagement, yet socialisation plays a fundamental role in development.
