Five faculty engaged this semester in Mary Titus' CILA Associate Learning Community, titled "Disciplining Interdisciplinarity," will share some of the insights they have gained into the practical and political aspects of crossing disciplinary lines. Among the topics they've read, considered, and discussed are issues of expertise, pedagogy, and institutional structure.
