A skilled tax attorney holding a JD from West Virginia University, Robin Capehart has drawn on decades of professional experience to serve as both an academic instructor and administrator. During his eight-year tenure as president of West Liberty University (WLU), Robin Capehart introduced several successful initiatives, including a new training program for aspiring physician assistants.
West Liberty University’s Master of Science in Physician Assistant (PA) Studies program launched in 2012, and by the following year, the program had attracted hundreds of interested students. Each year, approximately 20 students selected from as many as 600 applicants have the opportunity to learn from science professors and medical specialists in both laboratory and classroom settings, building a strong foundation for an eventual PA career.
