The PDF can be found at this link: Scholarship Study 2012<\/a>\n<\/p>\n \nIn 2011, a follow-up study was conducted covering 2008-2010. In addition to peer-reviewed journal articles, books, book chapters, edited books, grants, published peer-reviewed abstracts, other publications, and conference presentations, a few more categories of scholarship were included: consulting, unfunded grant proposals, service to the community, participation in professional organizations, external partnerships\/collaborations, and other outcomes. A PowerPoint presentation can be found at this link: Scholarship Study 2003-2010<\/a>\n<\/p>\n \nDuring the 2007-2008 academic year, the OFRSP conducted a study of faculty scholarship at the College. There were several purposes of the study. One was to simply ascertain what kinds of activities the faculty have been engaged in during the last five years (2003-2007). It was also hoped that the study would reveal any trends in faculty scholarship. Is scholarship increasing? Decreasing? Staying the same?<\/p>\n All full-time faculty were asked to indicate details about their scholarly achievements and 97 percent responded to the request for information. Faculty were asked to provide information about: peer-reviewed journal articles, books, book chapters, edited books, grants, published peer-reviewed abstracts, other publications, conference presentations, and other outcomes (these could include but were not limited to: works of art, art shows, and multimedia productions).<\/p>\n In summary, publishing is on the increase at SPC and this increase is occurring across ranks. Congratulations to the faculty whose hard work has resulted in these positive trends. A Powerpoint presentation on the study can be found at this link: SPC Scholarship Study<\/a>.\n<\/p>\n \nA reception was held on April 24th, 2013 in the Library to celebrate faculty scholarship.
