Kate Catterall, Associate Professor, Design
I have been actively engaged in shared governance at the University (Faculty Council, several standing committees) and College levels for 25+ years. I have served on Executive Committees in both the Dept. of Art and Art History and Design Department in COFA. I am a tenured Associate Professor who teaches at the graduate and undergraduate levels. My research (https://www.drawingtheringofsteel.org/) and engagement with the workplace are informed by place-based ethic of care. Administrative/Leadership roles: I have served as Assistant Chair for Design on two occassions and as Graduate Advisor on three different occasssions. It would be an honor serve as a Faculty Council representative for COFA again.
