Since 2004, the distinction of Batten Professorship has been awarded to
Virginia Wesleyan College professors for faculty excellence in teaching and
scholarship, community contributions, and passion for inspiring excellence in
others. Faculty recipients of this prestigious honor carry the title for three
academic years and are rewarded with special development funding that enhances
the quality of teaching throughout the College.
This year, I’m pleased to share the newly named Batten Professors for 2016-2019:
Dr. Paul Ewell, Associate Professor of Management, Business, and Economics,
and Director of the MBA Program
Dr. Kevin Kittredge, Associate Professor of Chemistry
Dr. Taryn Myers, Assistant Professor of Psychology
Ms. Sharon Swift, Professor of Art
Please join me in congratulating these outstanding members of our faculty
for this much-deserved recognition.
