• Developing new graduate coursework in higher education policy within the Masters program of the Department of Public Policy and Administration at California State University, Sacramento;


• Participating in the planning for a joint Ed.D. in educational leadership at CSU Sacramento in cooperation with the University of California, Davis and Sonoma State University.
