FACULTY AND ADMINISTRATION
McGhee professors combine the best academic training with real-world experience. They have
demonstrated their expertise in diverse fields—from creative writing to diagnostic medical
sonography, and business management to psychology. As evidenced by the list of credentials held by
McGhee faculty, they are experts in their fields, as well as outstanding teachers who make their
areas of specialization accessible to their students. They bring their dedication and innovative
methods to the classroom. Chosen for their ability and experience, McGhee faculty enjoy the
challenge of the give-and-take dialogue that occurs in a classroom of adults.
Faculty know that McGhee students have high expectations and are serious about learning. It is
axiomatic that the more demanding a student is, the better the professor teaches—and McGhee
students are very demanding.
