Hopefully I still have some time left to
work on my legacy.
To date I would say:
Transforming Stamps from an average,
traditional student health service into a
modern, high tech, state-of-the art true
University Health Service.
In the past four years,
• we achieved national accreditation
for the first time,
• instituted an electronic medical
record,
• did $3+million in capital construction,
• left the USG insurance consortium
and contracted for a vastly improved
and less expensive student health
insurance policy,
• hosted the Southern College Health
Association (SCHA) annual meeting
and
• heightened our impact on wellness
across campus, the State and the
region.
Personally, I was elected SCHA
President and became the first Clinical
Professor ever at Georgia Tech. 13
