Fayolle says, “Since I have been on the Board, I have witnessed the school go from strength to strength under the leadership of previous Board Chairs Sean Cook and Dr. Tanya Martin. In partnership with the senior leadership team of the school, we revisited and reaffirmed that we exist to educate psychologists today who will transform the world tomorrow, because as a community we envision a future with healthy people, healthy relationships, and healthy communities.
We are able to do this because our school is built on some very solid foundations. We hold accreditations/designations at the highest level by all the relevant bodies, including the Higher Learning Commission, the American Psychological Association for our doctoral program, and the Behavior Analysis Certification Board. We have an extremely accomplished and forward-thinking leadership team led by Dr. Brown, and our students are taught by a diverse group of extremely talented and passionate educators.
My primary objective as Chair is to continue building the synergistic relationship between the Board of Trustees and the senior leadership team of the school as we seek to accomplish our mission while also being prepared for whatever challenges lay ahead,” Fayolle states.
The current Michigan School of Psychology Board of Trustees includes: Chair Glen Fayolle, Vice Chair Brian Spitsbergen, Treasurer Stacey Gray, Secretary DeAndre Lipscomb, MSP President Fran Brown, Colleen Allen, Todd Lipa, Mona Makki, and Sook Wilkinson.
