In addition to serving as English Department chair for a decade, Susan Bernardo worked on every faculty committee. “In all of those roles, she helped create systems that worked well and helped people thrive,” current English Department chair Ali Arant wrote. “When colleagues were new, she was their determined advocate.” Bernardo also earned a reputation as a demanding but nurturing teacher, sharing her scholarship in the classroom as well as in journals and books.
