Early life and education
Achievements
In 2004, Bailey launched implementation of a new Student Information System, "GoWMU", that dramatically altered students' electronic access to academic resources and services as well as streamlined operations across the campus.
Termination
On August 15, 2006, the Board of Trustees of Western Michigan University fired Bailey over drop of enrollment, after total enrollment fell from approximately 30,000 students to 25,000 over the three years she led the university. Bailey's termination by the board came after she refused an offer to buy out her contract, worth upwards of $400,000, if she resigned. Former president Diether Haenicke was named interim president at the same time. On October 27, 2006, it was announced that Bailey and the university had agreed to a severance package of $530,000.
