Thank you to NASPAA’s Commission on Peer Review and Accreditation (COPRA) for an incredible year dedicated to public service education. We would also like to place a special emphasis on our retiring COPRA members. Thank you for your hard work and dedication to serving and supporting programs!

The COPRA members that have finished their terms and rolled off the Commission are:

  • Angela Eikenberry, University of Connecticut (Chair)
  • Shaoming Cheng, Florida International University
  • Jerrell Coggburn, North Carolina State University
  • Anna Ya Ni, California State University, San Bernardino
  • C. Kurt Zorn, Indiana University

During the biannual June COPRA meeting, we were able to recognize and thank each retiring member for their invaluable contributions over the past few years.
