Three faculty members in the College of Letters & Science have received 2016-17 Faculty Professional Development Grants from the University of Wisconsin System.

Junko Mori, a professor of East Asian Languages and Literature, Cherene Sherrard, a professor of English, and Peter Timbie, a professor of physics, earned the awards.

The faculty development program is dedicated to the maintenance of academic excellence in the UW System. System funds are provided to support retraining, renewal and faculty development.

In keeping with the conditions and intent of the legislation that supports this program, “the purpose of this comprehensive program is to increase the flexibility and effective use of existing faculty personnel in the University of Wisconsin System.”
