May 4, 2016
I had the pleasure recently of attending "Feathers in Your Cap: A Celebration of Faculty Work” in Hofheimer Library. The event recognized Virginia Wesleyan faculty, adjunct professors, librarians, and staff who in the last year have published a book or professional publication, obtained a grant, and received tenure and/or promotion. I was impressed by both the quality and quantity of work displayed, and I am honored to work among extraordinarily talented faculty who are so strongly committed to excellence in both teaching and scholarship.

On display were works and accomplishments by:

Kevin Adams                              Kevin Kittredge
The late Tina Aldrich                  Susan Larkin
Soraya Bartol                             Stephen Leist
Thomas Brown                           Terry Lindvall
