Woodrow Wilson Teachers as Scholars Program at MSU
Dear MSUNER Members,
I am excited to announce the Teachers As Scholars program for the 2007-2008 school year. The program provides MSUNER school teachers and administrators an opportunity to immerse themselves in scholarly topics and issues in small, liberal arts seminars offered by MSU faculty in the Arts and Sciences. All seminars are in two parts, and participants must attend both sessions. The seminars are offered free of charge to participating teachers and administrators and take place on the MSU campus. As you are aware, all of the MSUNER districts have endorsed this program, pledging to provide substitute coverage for teachers who wish to attend any of the eight seminars being offered.
This year’s seminar topics are:
Robinson and Doby: Civil Rights Pioneers before Rosa Parks
Culture through Film: Identities, Movements, and Transformations
Young Adult Literature and Theory: Perfect Together
English: A Tale of Two Languages
Evolutionary Biology
The Sixties
Gender and Identity in Spanish Film and Fiction
New Definitions of Religious Truth: Pluralist Theology
Take a look at the attached PDF for detailed descriptions of each seminar.
Please share this email with your district colleagues. All those interested in registering for a seminar(s) should complete the registration form at

For all seminars, breakfast and lunch will be served and parking passes for the Red Hawk Deck will be provided. All participants will be contacted by email with directions to the MSU campus and the seminar location.
Seating is limited and will be determined on a first come, first served basis.
I look forward to seeing you at a Teachers As Scholars Seminar this year!!
All my best,
