I have observed the innovative approaches that Dr. Pichla has used to engage community partners in meaningful discussions on a variety of operational, organizational programmatic, and public policy issues and have no doubt that he will use similarly creative instructional approaches to stimulate the interest of his students and enrich their learning experience. He is a contextual thinker who understands the value of applied knowledge in higher education and knows how to draw from his diverse experience to illustrate key concepts.
