Formed in Spring 2025, the Textbook Affordability Advisory Committee is designed to help us advance open education and affordable textbook options for faculty. It is a key strategy in advancing equity measures on campus. The group is led by the Dean of Library & Learning and our faculty librarian responsible for textbook affordability. Rather than seek a member from each college, we draw upon faculty who have already completed OER learning circles with the system office.
Committee Members include:
- Kris Brockman, Maverick Shop Bookstore
- Brooke Burk, CETL
- Chris Corley, Dean of Library and Learning
- Emily Dittrich, Student Government
- Adriana Gordillo, World Languages & Cultures
- Kim Gourneau, Registrar
- Yalda Hamidi, Gender and Women's Studies
- Maria Kalyvaki, Marketing
- Heather McIntosh, Film and Media Studies
- Marc Nash, IT Solutions
- Deborah Nykanen, Civil Engineering
- Joe Rodgers, Music
