Support the ProgramWomen's Studies Program at Miami University
Welcome from the Director
(September 9, 2009)
Dear Friends:
In this fall of Miami's 200th year, we continue to have many reasons to celebrate the continued strength of the Women's Studies Program (WMS). Three of our faculty members won significant teaching awards this past year — Sally Lloyd (Professor of Women's Studies and Educational Leadership) received the Richard T. Delp Outstanding Faculty Award from Miami University's School of Education, Health and Society; Liz Wilson (WMS affiliate and Professor of Comparative Religion) received the Distinguished Teaching Award for Excellence in Graduate Instruction; and Moira Casey (WMS affiliate and associate professor of English) received the Miami University Middletown Excellence in Teaching Award. This triumvirate joins a long list of core faculty and affiliates who have received teaching awards here at the "foundry of feminists."
Several faculty members published or translated books last year, among them Vitaly Chernetsky, Mary Jean Corbett, Madelyn Detloff, Darcy Donahue, Stefanie Dunning, Susan Morgan, and Kay Sloan; others published articles in major journals, including — Fauzia Ahmed, Yu-Fang Cho, and Kate Kuvalanka. Ann Elizabeth Armstrong (affiliate in WMS, Associate Professor of Theatre and faculty member in the Western Program) was a co-recipient of a National Endowment for the Humanities grant for her work on Finding Freedom Summer in Oxford, OH, which culminates in a major conference October 9-11 and the production of an original play Down in Mississippi, running October 1-4 and 8-10.
I probably have missed more accomplishments and events than I have listed here. Please contact me at detlofmm@muohio.edu with suggestions for more reasons to celebrate our colleagues, alumni, students, and community members!
Looking forward,
Madelyn Detloff
Director, Women's Studies Program
