I meet with students regarding reports of misconduct on and off campus, including academic and non-academic matters. I also meet with students to discuss resolving conflicts between themselves and others. I oversee the code of student conduct (in the student handbook), investigate protected-class based harassment and discrimination reports against students, and serve as a member of the university Care Team and Bias Incident Response Team. I earned a Bachelor of Arts and a Master of Arts in English from the University of South Dakota, and I have a Ph.D. in Higher Education from the University of North Dakota. I have worked in the areas of student conduct, Title IX, residential life, diversity and inclusion programs, and new student orientation.

My name is Chuck and I am very excited to be serving Minnesota State University – Moorhead as the Director of Accessibility Resources and ADA Coordinator for students. Originally, I am from Arizona and I have worked in higher education since 2006. I completed two bachelors and two Masters Degrees from Northern Arizona University. More recently, I completed a Graduate Certificate in Disability Policy & Practice (Northern Arizona University and a Master’s Degree in Emergency Management & Homeland Security (Arizona State University). My breadth of education derive around my passion for accessibility and creating opportunities for all students with functional needs/disabilities. In my role at MSUM, I look forward to working with students to create a “level playing field” and provide access to opportunities to have your best experience. In my free time, I love spending time with my family and enjoying the great outdoors. I am so excited to call MSUM my home and cannot wait to meet and serve all of you! Go Dragons!
