Moves and Milestones

Jim Keller has left his position as program director of the Red Rocks Community College (RRCC) PA Program and will shortly begin a new career as the full-time clinical provider in a rural health clinic, Meadows Family Medicine Center that he helped establish in 2005 with a grant from the Colorado Trust. Keller was director at RRCC for more than six years and has been in PA education for more than 13. He plans to continue to precept RRCC PA students in the clinic and to teach an occasional lecture in the program. Keller can be contacted in his new position at Keller50@aol.com or (720) 839-5400.

Cynthia Somers is serving as interim program director of the Red Rocks program. Somers has been with RRCC since its inception in 1998. She has taught biochemistry, served as the program’s first academic coordinator, and chaired its admissions committee.

Do you have news you'd like to share with other faculty members?

PAEA Networker's Moves and Milestones column is designed to help keep members informed about their colleagues’ activities. The column features information on faculty moves and promotions and on significant changes and achievements at member programs. Examples are faculty moving to new positions within the program or elsewhere, grants received, articles or books published, a new track or satellite campus established. We also welcome curricular innovations that may not have the research basis for peer-reviewed publication but that would be of anecdotal interest to PA faculty.

If you have news you would like to share, please send it to Eileen Evans, PAEA Networker managing editor, at eevans@PAEAonline.org; (703) 548-5538, ext. 307. News must be received by the 20th of the month for inclusion in the following month’s issue.
