"From its inception, I knew that this partnership would be a win-win for both institutions. As a graduate of both universities, I know firsthand the strengths that each can offer to students and faculty, and I also knew how these strengths could be used to enhance the overall education experience. Students and faculty from both institutions are provided the opportunity to work together in classrooms on-site as well as from a distance, with each learning new techniques, theories, and information from sometimes differing perspectives and experiences. This is a model for teaching and learning that can and should be replicated, as our world becomes smaller through the magic of technology. I am excited about the possibilities that such a partnership brings for everyone involved, and look forward to its continued expansion into a variety of disciplines."
