While service is a broad subject and unique to each institution, it has always been my perspective to find aspects in the university environment that I appreciate and would like to be involved in. I had always done this regardless of my tenure track position or not – simply said university is my second home and I want to be involved in it. At our university ( Oklahoma State University) such things have included engaging with The Center for Sovereign Nations, International Students program, Global Studies, and the Graduate College. In each aspect I thrive to be engaged on a continuous basis and develop a relationship with staff and faculty to pursue broader possibilities, allowing me to feel at home, and of course meeting my official 'service' qualification needs.
