Purdue University is undertaking a national search for the next deputy director of its Disability Resource Center, which provides services, resources, and programs to facilitate equal access for disabled students, resulting in their full participation in curricular and co-curricular offerings. 

The search committee selected the following finalists:

  • Andy Christensen
  • Michelle Lehman
  • Sandra Cash

Each candidate will visit the West Lafayette campus the week of Aug. 29. During the visits, faculty, staff, and students are invited to attend a seminar for each candidate, consisting of a presentation and time to ask each of them questions.
