During Buck's tenure, she served as the Secretary of the Board and served on the Board Budget Committee.
President L. Marshall Washington, Ph.D. expressed his appreciation for Trustee Buck's service: "Kalamazoo Valley is most grateful for the service provided by Trustee Buck and appreciates her service on behalf of the communities served by the college. Her understanding of policy governance and commitment to our region's educational needs have benefitted thousands of students and will impact the region for many years to come."
