Robert Campbell

For those of you who are new to the board, Dr. Robert Campbell has a great deal of credibility for multiple reasons.  As a professor of psychology, he has a depth of understanding related to human behavior and motivations that is extremely knowledgeable, arguably expert.  As an active participant in faculty governance organizations such as faculty senate and AAUP, he understands the essential role these organizations play in the operation of a university.  As a tenured faculty member at Clemson University, he has a strong sense of the traditions, challenges, and aspirations of a public university in the South.  As a member of a department not normally associated with business, that is combined with business at Clemson, he has a unique appreciation of what would have been required to make the economic development/business reorganization work...and why it did not.  As an academic, he upholds both the principles and the standards that make professors and universities successful.  That success is what translates into programs that benefit students and the communities they subsequently influence.
