Moderators Bravus Posted February 7, 2015 Moderators Posted February 7, 2015 I was named Deputy Head of School (Learning and Teaching) in my current university, Griffith. I convened one large program for teaching high school teachers last year, and this is the next step up that ladder - I'm now responsible for managing all the learning and teaching in all of the 29 degree programs, both undergraduate and postgraduate, offered in our School to more than 4000 students. It's daunting but exciting, and I'm already enjoying it a lot. I'm off to the University Senior Leadership Conference this coming week. Or, as my beloved puts it, "hobnobbing with the bigwigs". (of course, I'm now the newest and tiniest tadpole in that particular pond!) WelchGary, Tom Wetmore, Deroypart and 12 others 15 Quote Truth is important

Administrators Tom Wetmore Posted February 8, 2015 Administrators Posted February 8, 2015 Bravo, Bravus!!! Quote "Absurdity reigns and confusion makes it look good." "Sinless perfection is such a shallow goal." "I love God only as much as the person I love the least." *Forgiveness is always good news. And that is the gospel truth. (And finally, the ideas expressed above are solely my person views and not that of any organization with which I am associated.)
Moderators Bravus Posted February 9, 2015 Author Moderators Posted February 9, 2015 Thanks, all, for your kind words. I hope I have the right attitude: that this role is about service to the students and staff, not about power for me. I guess some power - in the sense of the ability to make things happen - is needed to serve others, but that's what it's *for*. I've also had to drop the physics studies I was doing, just because there was too much on my plate. I regret it, but I think while I might be smart enough to do physics, I might not be smart enough to do it while also trying to do dozens of other things... Kevin H 1 Quote Truth is important
