prompted these arguments, were instituted by
Isdale when she took her current position in
1995 in an attempt to help Beutel better deal
with the student population.
“Dr. Isdale has done a wonderful job enhanc
ing the student experience at Beutel because she
values the students' concerns above those of her
staff,” Kibler said. “Because of that, student com
