Keith BaileyLong-time UPCEA member and colleague Keith Bailey (1970-2020) passed away in early December 2020.

In this role, he oversaw the day-to-day operations of both WVU Online and the University’s Teaching and Learning Commons. Dr. Bailey previously served as the Director of the Office of Online Learning at the University of Georgia and as the Assistant Dean for eLearning at the Penn State University’s College of Arts and Architectures.

UPCEA extends its heartfelt condolences to the Bailey family. Dr. Bailey is survived by his wife and three children. Colleagues are invited to share remembrances of Keith here.
