SCHOLARSHIP RECONSIDERED: WHAT'S IN? WHAT'S OUT?
Dan Hofrenning, Political Science and 2002-03 CILA Associate; Mary Cisar, Registrar, French; Rich Durocher, English and past Tenure&Promotion Chair.
Wednesday, November 20
11:45 am-1:15 pm - Buntrock 142
Lunch provided
2002-2003 CILA Associate Dan Hofrenning will help
lead a discussion on definitions of scholarship. In recent years,
many in the academy have called for new forms of scholarly genres
such as "the scholarship of engagement" and "the
scholarship of teaching." Adapting to changing times, many
departments have revised their statements of professional responsibility.
This session will appraise these new genres of scholarship.
Dan will be joined by another (former) department chair, who will discuss the process of writing new statements of professional activity, and by a past Tenure & Promotion committee member, who will also comment on interpreting these new statements.
