People

History faculty members bring varied backgrounds to their teaching. Some hold degrees in other areas, such as law or the ministry. All have sustained their research interests through work in the geographical areas of their specialties, whether in the field or in archives or records offices. Extended stays in Russia, Britain, France, Germany, China and Kenya help to assure both currency in scholarship and vitality in the classroom. Books and articles published by the History faculty are used as texts in colleges across the country, or cited for their importance in studies by other scholars, or have won national awards.
