Faculty Research Conference Aims to Share Projects with Colleagues
The Faculty Research Conference will take place from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Feb. 13 in the Student Union Building.
The idea for the Faculty Research Conference came out of conversations during the 2008-09 school year about supporting faculty scholarship and sharing it with colleagues.
The call for papers asked for presentations that communicate to a non-specialist audience why individual faculty studies are fascinating.
This is the second conference this academic year, due to numerous submissions, representing a range of disciplines.
Each presentation will be 20 minutes in length with 10 minutes for discussion and questions.
Those faculty members planning to attend are asked to RSVP at http://www.doodle.com/zfy7vq65nkpwqsg4. Box lunches are provided for those who RSVP by Feb. 5.
Presenting faculty members include: Scott Alberts (“Cognitive Distortions in the Mathematics Classroom”); Christopher Maglio (“I DON’T WANT TO GO TO SCHOOL!: Anxiety and Anxiety-Related Disorders in Children”); Chad Mohler (“If You Can’t Trust Your Friends...: What to Believe When Your Peers Disagree with You”); Peter Rolnick (“Do Mass Populations Behave Like a Mass on a Spring?”); Wynne Wilbur (“Ceramics: Conceptual Basis and Process in Utilitarian Work”); Cole Woodcox (“Architectural Style of the Masonic Temple in Kirksville, Missouri in Social and Historical Context”); Pam Ryan and Tony Weisstein (“Distinguishing Evolutionary Mechanisms withTajima’s D Statistic”); and Daniel Mandell (“The American Revolution and Economic Regulation”). Jason Miller will lead a roundtable discussion on support for faculty research to close the conference.
