Sabbatical Reports

The purpose of my sabbatical leave was to develop an independent research program I could implement upon returning to full-time faculty status beginning in the fall 2014 semester after a nearly 12-year term as department head.

(Finally I) will report the results of a longitudinal, RCap-funded study I conducted during my sabbatical to assess one women's …
