At minimum I hope that my thoughts on the direction of the Graduate School may prove helpful to the search committee and the new Dean, whomever that may be. To begin, there are three important attributes that I believe I can bring to this role. I share them here, because they clearly drive my comments on the envisioning committee’s specific recommendations. - I am most passionate about student success, and I firmly believe student success represents a singular goal that we can tie all our other goals and metrics into. - I am unable to settle for anything but operational excellence in day-to-day activities, and believe that you cannot sustainably advance the boundaries of academia without operational strength. - I am applying to this role with significant leadership experience, including connecting to both leadership on campus and with government, community, and industry leaders. I will now comment on my general approach to this role and the envisioning committee’s recommendations. At this re-envisioning stage for the Graduate School, approach is arguably more important than detailed action plans.

    National Collegiate Baseball Writers Newsletter (Volume 41, No. 7, Aug. 27, 2002) The President’s Message NCBWA President Rob Carolla Hello to everyone from the President’s chair! As I sit down to write this, we’re busy preparing for football, soccer, volleyball and all the other fall sports. I’m sure college baseball (not this strike-related nonsense!) may be the last thing on your mind – but I hope to put a few quick topics in front of each of you. To begin, I would like to congratulate the 2002 Wilbur Snypp Award winner – Russ Anderson of Conference USA. Russ has been a great friend and promoter of college baseball and the NCBWA and his work for the organization and its members has been invaluable. Thanks, Russ! Speaking of Russ, I hope everyone has submitted his or her dues for membership in 2002-03. On that topic, I’m hoping one thing we can do during my tenure is increasing the membership among media representatives in the organization. The SID representation has always been very strong, and I hope that we can have as equally solid a group from the media sector. I’m asking each NCBWA member to recruit just ONE person from the media to join the organization in 2002-03. If each of you can recruit just ONE media member to join, it would be fantastic! I sincerely ask everyone to keep this in mind as we get closer to baseball season. In addition, I would like to solicit any feedback regarding how we can help you in the upcoming year.
