The College of Professional Studies will have representation in the Faculty Senate for the first time next academic year, which faculty said will further shared governance.
John Warren, an associate professor and the director of publishing at CPS, and Scott White, an associate professor and director of cybersecurity, were elected as nonvoting delegates after the senate and the Faculty Assembly voted to grant the school representation last year. Warren and White said the new positions will help raise awareness of CPS’s role at the University as a peer to other schools and colleges, build partnerships between CPS and other GW programs and join other faculty in advocacy for shared governance — the role of faculty to consult the University on decision making.
