Dr. Peggy Shadduck Reimagined Updates
Update on Regional Campus Bookstore Operations
Dear Regional Campus Faculty and Staff,
We want to keep you informed about some key changes to the bookstore services at °ÄÃÅÁùºÏ²Ê×ÊÁÏ, which are set to begin in summer 2024. As you know, our contracted partnership with Barnes & Noble continues to evolve in response to changing demands and preferences, notably the increased trend of students ordering their books online. In recent semesters, the regional campus bookstores have seen a slowdown in store traffic, with many students ordering their books online, resulting in operational inefficiencies for the bookstore group.

Reorganization of Two Functional Areas in the Regional System: Feb. 13, 2024
Dear Regional System colleagues,
After valuable feedback from the Regional Campus Faculty Councils, the Campus Deans, the Provost and I have made decisions about reorganization of two functional areas – Business Affairs and Class Scheduling/Academic Support. Additionally, adjustments have been made concerning campus leadership.
At the suggestion of the Faculty Councils, we have stopped searches for new Dean/CAO positions for Ashtabula and East Liverpool/Salem. Instead, the existing individuals in campus Dean/CAO positions will now oversee two locations moving forward.
