College of Food, Agriculture and Environmental Sciences Department of Animal Sciences Visioning and Strategic Planning - Developed a plan for curriculum changes and future hiring of faculty members in the Department Department Pattern of Administration & Appointment, Promotion and Tenure - Developed the Pattern of Administration and Appointment, Promotion, and Tenure documents which describes how the Department Chair and Associate Chair will function in their administrative roles and the details of Departmental management of the appointment, promotion, and tenure processes for tenure track, and research track faculty members Employed 13 faculty members - Faculty members were employed, one with a primary focus on 4-H Extension programs, three with a primary focus on undergraduate teaching, seven with a primary focus on fundamental research, and two with a leadership role in extension Developed stronger linkages between the Department of Animal Sciences and specific departments outside of the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences - Greater faculty member and administrator collaborations have developed between the Department of Animal Sciences and the Department of Veterinary Preventive Medicine in the College of Veterinary Medicine, as well as with the Department of Human Nutrition in the College of Education and Human Ecology - Emphasis in these interactions is on enhancing the quality of the interdepartmental nutritional sciences and animal health programs; A present focus is on building stronger collaborations with specific faculty members in the School of Natural Resources and College of Medicine Provided Leadership for Developing New Areas of Research and Educational Thrust An enhanced focus in the area of anaerobic microbiology was developed through faculty hires and redirection of existing programs within the Department of Animal Sciences. This has evolved into a newly developed research focus in fermentation biology targeting the area of bioenergy. This has now developed to the extent that the Department of Animal Sciences provides leadership in this field of research within the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences. The enhanced focus on fermentation biology has resulted in approximately $5 million for enhanced Department infrastructure and operational funding for programs in the bioenergy area. Provided the impetus for a strong relationship with the scientists at the Animal Welfare Science Centre, Melbourne Australia in collaborative research This has included joint graduate student educational endeavors, subject matter modules of undergraduate education, professional animal caretaker modules for outreach education to animal industry stakeholders, undergraduate student study abroad program, and development of a new course focused on the importance of animals in society emphasizing societal and psychological aspects in teaching of this class with the class being taught by an Animal Sciences Adjunct faculty member from Monash University trained in the area of human psychology. Strengthened Administrative Infrastructure - Employed an Administrative Associate, as a result of funding obtained from the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences at the time of OSU employment, to assist faculty members and me in expediting the progress of high priority activities examples are extramural funding, enhanced relationships with other colleges and external stakeholders, renovation activities, assisting faculty members in working through the University bureaucracy; Redefined position and employed a person into the position of Chief Operating Officer in the Department so as to enhance function in assisting faculty members in extramural funding endeavors, and dealing with fiscal management instead of functioning as an accountant; Employed staff person, as a result of funding obtained from the College of Food, Agricultural and Environmental Sciences, into a new position focused on assisting faculty members, staff members and graduate students with information transfer technology; Reallocated Department funds to employ Departmental Student Success Center Coordinator to assist undergraduate students in career development; Reallocated Departmental funds to employ a staff person focused on marketing Departmental programs, branding of the Department, and in developing stronger relationships with alumni; Established a joint appointment between the Department of Animal Sciences and the Ohio Agricultural Research Development Center through reallocation of Departmental funding to employ a staff person who facilitates grant proposal submissions Peer Teaching Review of Department Faculty Members - Formalized peer faculty member review process was initiated whereby faculty members provide peer faculty members feedback on their teaching of classes; Review process focuses on providing pretenure faculty members and those who are not fully promoted feedback on the materials they provide to students in specific classes and on their classroom teaching activities Curriculum Changes - Curriculum was revised to reduce number of classes taught in the Department in traditional areas (nutrition, physiology, genetics and meat science) and initiate teaching of classes focusing on animal health and companion animals; Leadership role for developing a Study Abroad Program in Australia focusing on animal sciences and study of Australian culture; First Ohio State University Australian Study Abroad Program was conducted during the spring quarter of 2003 and has continued on an annual basis (except for one year) in collaboration with the University of Melbourne and Charles Sturt University Enhanced Inter-Campus Administration - Established an office for the Department of Animals Sciences Chair on the Wooster campus - resulted in a presence of the Chair on the Wooster campus by working out of the Wooster campus office one day each 4

week (Friday); Resulted in enhanced rapport between the Department Chair and the Wooster-based faculty members (30% of faculty members) than has existed in the past Enhanced Department Faculty Member Inter-Campus Relationships - Because of the two-campus location of Departmental faculty members, unique challenges exist for faculty members in gaining knowledge about peer faculty members programs and developing close working relationships across the two campuses; Value of strong working relationships has been emphasized and rewarded in annual review processes and salary compensations for Department faculty members and continues to be a work in progress Recognition of Faculty Members, Staff Members and Graduate Students - Particular emphasis placed on developing more and greater quality nominations for national, University and College awards; Dramatic increase in Department recognitions as a consequence Linkages with External Stakeholders - Emphasis is placed on relationships with external stakeholders who are business leaders while maintaining relationships with traditional commodity-based (dairy, beef, poultry, pork) leaders; Enhanced interactions with leaders at Wendy s International, Iams Dog and Cat Nutrition Division of Proctor and Gamble, Bob Evans Farms, particularly the Food Products Division, and the United States Air Force Reseach Laboratory Increased Extramural Funding Great emphasis was placed on the importance of extramural funding to achieve the Department s mission in creating an Administrative Team infrastructure to facilitate grant proposal submissions, emphasis on its importance in Annual Performance Reviews, and rewarding faculty members with annual salary compensations consistent with garnering extramural funding. Animal Sciences faculty expenditures through the Ohio State Research Foundation where OSU extramural funding is managed for FY2000 was $309,000 (fiscal year starting 15 days after J. Kinder appointment as Department Chair); FY2001 - $821,000; FY2002 - $1,158,000; FY2003 - $1,212,000; FY2004 - $1,245,000; FY2005 - $1,629,000; FY2006 - $1,823,000; FY2007 - $2,051,000; and FY2008 - $1,732,000 with data not available for FY2009 at present. This increase in extramural funding was accomplished during a period when there was a 25% to 30% reduction in State support through the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center funding line for Departmental research personnel (faculty and staff) and operating funds. Many of the federal grants were awarded to faculty members who had not previously received federal funding with total number of Departmental active grants increasing from less than 30 to greater than 70 from FY2000 to FY2008. Budget Reduction Process - A methodical process was instituted whereby inputs from Department faculty and staff members and College-level administrators were used to reduce the Department budget by approximately 28% during the 2002, 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2008, and 2009 fiscal years. The focus in these reduction processes has been to maintain a strong faculty member base focused on signature programs determined through Departmental planning endeavors. Development of Undergraduate Student Success Center - An Undergraduate Student Success Center was developed in the Department. The leadership of the Center is that of the previously mentioned Undergraduate Student Success Center Coordinator. This Center focuses on assisting students with their career development, strategically mentoring students as to how to have a high quality internship program (required by all undergraduate students in College) and also provides a place where students can go to gain input on any issue they want to address in their educational endeavors particularly a venue whereby students provide constructive feedback through senior exit feedback and otherwise to the Departmental Administrative Team (Department Chair, Associate Chair, Program Coordinator, Student Success Center Coordinator, Information Transfer Faciliator, and two fiscal and human resources leaders). Undergraduate Student Advising Structure Led change for Departmental advising structure so there are six faculty members focused on advising all first year undergraduate students which has an undergraduate enrollment in College of about 550 students; One faculty member in the Department has been given the responsibility of helping ethnic minority students with their unique challenges they may face and in developing strong relationships with the leaders of ethnic minority assist groups on the OSU campus; Student Success Center Coordinator provides advising leadership for a joint training program established between Columbus State Community College and OSU Animal Sciences; Strategically aligned Departmental species specific faculty members to mentor Animal Sciences students gaining admittance into the College of Veterinary Medicine via the recently initiated Early Admittance Food Animal Health Program for OSU Animal Sciences students Learning Outcomes for Undergraduate Students - Specific learning outcomes for undergraduate students were developed through input from faculty and staff members who are involved in Department undergraduate education endeavors. This process served to enhance the understanding of faculty and staff members about subject matter taught in specific classes and to initiate changes that enhanced the continuity of teaching of subject matter across the entire Animal Science s curriculum. Graduate Training Collaborations Provided leadership for development of jointly funded graduate student training programs with external stakeholders (Animal Welfare Science Centre; USDA ARS; Select Sires; CSIRO Livestock Industries; Australian Poultry CRC) whereby students conduct research both at OSU and with the external stakeholder entity as part of their graduate education endeavors 5

Policies and Principles for Conducting Department of Animal Sciences Extension Activities - There is tremendous change as compared with traditional educational needs of leadership in the food-producing animal industries (particularly poultry, pork and dairy). The manner in which the leaders in these industries seek information from Extension Specialists has changed and the Department has provided the leadership in working with College Extension Administrators in developing the policies and principles for addressing changes to more effectively serve food-producing animal industries. Enhanced Department Faculty Member Leadership - There has been particular emphasis placed on the importance of faculty members to not rely excessively on Departmental and College administrators for leadership and direction. Stronger faculty member leadership has resulted in greater momentum for sustaining Department programmatic focus. This will also help sustain Departmental-based program endeavors when administrative leadership of the Department changes. The approach in developing stronger faculty member leadership will continue to be a work in progress during the period of tenure of the present Department administration. It is encouraging to note the perception by College administrators that there has been significant improvement in this area, particularly with some of the more senior faculty members of the Department. College Wide Land Use and Building Development Master Plan - There is need for building or renovation of most of the buildings that are inventoried to the Department of Animal Sciences at The Ohio State University. The Department Chair of Animal Sciences has had a primary role in serving on the College-wide Master Planning Committee in working with an external consulting group in developing a State-wide land use and building plan for the College of Food, Agricultural, and Environmental Sciences at The Ohio State University.
