Michigan State University, College of Agriculture and Natural Resources

(2016-Present)

The College of Agriculture and Natural Resources (CANR) comprises 12 academic departments and schools, the Institute of Agricultural Technology (IAT), MSU Extension (MSUE) and MSU AgBioResearch (MSUABR). In addition, CANR co-manages the Kellogg Biological Station, a year-round teaching, research and outreach campus, with the College of Natural Sciences. CANR is also the administrative home to the university’s Native

3

American Institute. There are approximately 280 tenure-track CANR faculty, 250 fixed-term faculty and academic specialists, and over 800 Extension, research, academic and administrative staff. Through MSUABR, the college supports all or part of an additional 75 faculty FTE’s in eight other MSU colleges. The college maintains a physical presence in all 83 Michigan counties, including 15 staffed research and Extension centers across the state. Enrollment is approximately 5,000, including 500 graduate students, 4,000 baccalaureate and 500 certificate students in IAT. Half the IAT students are residential at one of 12 community college partners around the state, with whom we jointly offer certificate programs in conjunction with their Associate Degree programs.

The college’s aggregate annual budget is approximately $290M. Research expenditures average $130M annually, with an additional $30M in contracts and grants administered in MSUE. CANR maintains research, teaching and outreach programs on all seven continents, and leads or partners with other MSU colleges in more than 70% of all international research and outreach activities at MSU.

As dean, my leadership and administrative responsibilities encompassed the overall teaching, research and outreach missions of the college, including fiscal resources, personnel, infrastructure, development and stakeholder relations. I represent the college’s interests on campus (e.g. oversight of Axia Institute for Value Chain Solutions with Colleges of Business and Engineering), academic organizations (e.g. APLU), and with key external stakeholders, including alumni, donors, and over fifty commodity and industry groups. I also have primary responsibility for legislative and executive branch relations with state officials, select federal legislators and other officials.

Key personal and unit accomplishments:

Legislative

Successfully worked with key stakeholders, legislators and state officials to secure new state-appropriated funds (beyond our $65M recurring budgets for MSUE and MSUABR) for CANR in support of Michigan’s agricultural & natural resources industries, workforce development and facilities:

FY18 special appropriations included $2.5M for the Michigan Agricultural Animal Alliance (M-AAA); $1.2M for workforce development in agriscience education and food processing; $3.2M to renovate our food processing laboratory; and $1M for our tree fruit research facilities.

FY19 special appropriations included $2M for M-AAA, $550K for a mobile fruit & vegetable processing lab for use in conjunction with our community college partners; and $4.6M for wildlife disease research.

FY21 special appropriations of $500K for MSUE Farm Stress Program; $2.5M for the Michigan Agricultural Animal Alliance (M-AAA).

College government relations and MSUE leadership team worked with local stakeholders in over a dozen counties to pass special millage initiatives to support MSUE.
