VITAE OF GREGORY S.

PAULSON

Current Position: Professor


Dept. of Biology
Shippensburg University
Shippensburg, PA 17257
717-532-1590 (W)

Duties: Teach a variety of biology courses. Evaluate student performance, maintain grade book and assign
grades. Supervise the activities of graduate teaching assistants. Advise undergraduate undeclared and biology
majors.

I have over 30 years of entomological research experience. I consider myself an applied ecologist. My research
background is diverse and has included studies of medical, agricultural, and urban pests. The common theme of
my work has been the development of integrated pest management programs to control pests. My contribution to
these programs has been the study of non-chemical methods of insect control. I have participated in
interdisciplinary (and intercultural) research projects and enjoy discussing projects and proposals with colleagues.
I am an enthusiastic and experienced teacher capable of teaching a variety of courses. I also have extension
experience and have participated in grower meetings and the production of extension publications and videos.

EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND

ADMINISTRATIVE EXPERIENCE

May, 2002 – June, 2009 - Chair, Department of Biology, Shippensburg University. Duties: Oversaw the
day-to-day operation of an academic department with 18 FTE faculty, 400 undergraduate majors, 57
undergraduate minors, and 45 graduate students (student numbers are approximations due to normal
fluctuations). Managed the budget, coordinated departmental committee activities, met with administrative
personnel, performed performance evaluations of temporary faculty, non-tenured faculty and staff, conducted
summer orientation, developed and implemented an departmental assessment plan, and participated in college
governance.

RESEARCH EXPERIENCE

Jan., 1991 to present - My current research interests are ant population dynamics, ant nest
thermodynamics, external and internal anatomy/morphology of insects with a focus on myrmecophilus syrphid
flies, especially structures which may be involved in the production and secretion of allelochemics responsible for
the fly's chemical mimicry of ants, tree fruit entomology and forensic entomology.

May, 1986 to Dec., 1990 - Research Assistant, W.S.U., Dept. of Entomology, Pullman, WA. Duties: 1).
Conducted field and laboratory studies to evaluate the potential of utilizing ants as biological control agents in the
integrated pest management of pear psylla. 2). Studied the ecology and behavior of ants in pear orchards. 3).

workshops and meetings to keep the public informed of our progress.
Major professor: Dr. R. D. Akre

Jan., 1984 to April, 1986 - Research Associate, U.H., Dept. of Plant Pathology, Maui Branch Station.
Duties: 1). Performed data compilation and statistical analysis to determine the best regression model which
estimated disease progress and developed models to predict disease and insect outbreaks in lettuce and
cabbage. 2). Assisted in field and laboratory research programs on insects, plant pathogens, and weeds of
cabbage and lettuce plantings to determine the interrelationships of weather parameters and plant maturity to
insect population increases and the infection rate of major lettuce and cabbage diseases. 3). Assisted in the
publication of weekly newsletters containing insect & disease information for farmers. 4). Participated in grower
workshops and informational meetings.
Supervisors: Drs. J. J. Cho and W. C. Mitchell

Included in “Bugs in my Freezer and Other Tales From an Entomolgist’s Wife” by Vicki Edwards
Close Encounters
Yes, entomology has at times been embarrassing for us, but for Professor Greg
Paulson, it was downright dangerous. He writes, "When I was working on my Ph.D. I spent a lot of time
studying the nocturnal interactions of ants in pear orchards. This required that my assistant and I
use red head lamps so we could observe the ants without disturbing them. One evening I heard someone
say, “What the h--- are you doing?” From my position crouched at the base of a tree, I looked up straight
into the business end of a double-barrel, 12-gauge shotgun. " Apparently one of the neighbors had seen red
lights bobbing up and down in the orchard and thought he was witnessing an alien invasion. I'm just glad he
asked questions before he opened fire. From then on my assistant and I changed to lights we carried instead
of wore on our heads and we placed the lights as far away from us as possible when we worked the orchard."
