In addition to being Title III Grant Coordinator, Harrison is Interim Library Director. He came to Saint Martin's in 2001 as Electronic Services and Reference Librarian in the O'Grady Library, where, among other duties, he administered the library's research databases, supported library systems, and oversaw technology instruction and support. He has chaired the Title III Activity II Faculty Development Advisory Board since January 2004 and served on the university's Academic Computing Affairs Council since 2001. Prior to coming to Saint Martin's, Harrison taught Basic English, and he has significant experience with teaching in technology-enhanced classrooms.

Extine, past Director of Academic Computing and Networks, has been with the University since 1995 and brings over twenty-five years of experience encompassing scientific research, small business management, installation and management of computer systems and networks, users support, and programming to the Title III Team.

Activity II Director
Deborah DeBow, M.A., is the Activity II Director, dividing her time between her duties as Director of the Learning Center and oversight of the integration of the Learning and Writing Center.
