I just came back from the fourth Plan-It Purple morning session. I was delighted to see our incoming group of freshmen and their families. I am excited about the possibilities that these new students represent. The campus, despite the construction, looks beautiful and is filled with possibilities.
I also received a message from Denise Ehlen, Director of Research and Sponsored Programs, with an announcement about the June 2008 National Endowment for the Humanities awards. In the state of Wisconsin, three awards were made - two to UW-Whitewater faculty. Congratulations to David Cartwright, Philosophy and Religious Studies, and Jo Ellen Burkholder, Sociology, Anthropology, and Criminal Justice, and their colleagues for these awards!
