About Our People
Terry Huffman (Education) participated in the Oxford Education Research Symposium at Pembroke College of Oxford University in August. A review panel evaluated 169 proposals, and ultimately 24 scholars were invited to participate in an intensive three-day symposium divided into three board topical areas. Terry’s paper, titled “Tribal Strengths of Native Americans as Indigenous Educational Leaders,†was selected as outstanding paper in the session organized around the theme “Social Change and Education.†The 24 participants included scholars from Australia, China, Italy, Japan, Kyrgyzstan, Saudi Arabia, Sri Lanka, the United Kingdom and the United States.
Ed Higgins (English) published his poem “Thirteen Ways of Looking at Blackbeard (with thanks to Wallace Stevens)†in the April 2015 edition of Parody Poetry, a literary magazine. The piece is a parody of Wallace Stevens’ “Thirteen Ways of Looking at a Blackbird.â€
