Gregory Jay, Senior Director of the Cultures and Communities Program and Professor of English at the University of Wisconsin, Milwaukee, will talk about how his campus has addressed many of the challenges facing engaged scholarship, including questions of tenure and promotion, community partnerships, financial support, and the relationship between engaged research and learning.

Jay's visit is part of an ongoing series of events on publicly engaged scholarship in the humanities, arts and design sponsored by the School of the Arts, the Lied Center, and the Hall Center. Look for more events in the Spring semester. For more information, please contact one of the consortium's campus contacts: Liz Kowalchuk, Associate Dean, School of the Arts, at kowalchu@ku.edu, or Kristine Latta, Associate Director, Hall Center for the Humanities, at klatta@ku.edu.
