Damona Doye, associate vice president of Oklahoma State University Extension, has been elected chair of the Extension Committee on Organization and Policy for the Association of Public and Land-Grant Universities.

• Develop policy and administrative guidance that facilitates system advancement.
• Engage the Extension system and the public as partners to reflect priorities for the people it serves.
• Actively communicate policy, functions and actions of the system.
• Collaborate and communicate with external groups important to the system’s mission.
• Implement efficient and effective mechanisms to address Extension needs.
• Support a mechanism by which members collaborate in program identification, development and delivery for access to audiences any time and any place.
• Identify opportunities and coordinate efforts to expand resources available to Extension.
