Three faculty members selected to participate in UGA’s Special Collections Libraries Faculty Fellows Program
Three faculty members were selected to participate in the 2019 cohort of UGA’s Special Collections Libraries Faculty Fellows Program.
Donna Alvermann, the Omer Clyde and Elizabeth Parr Aderhold Professor in Education and Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Language and Literacy Education; Melissa Freeman, professor in the Department of Lifelong Education, Administration, and Policy; and Elizabeth Saylor, clinical assistant professor in the Department of Educational Theory and Practice will develop or redesign courses using the collections and resources of UGA’s three special collections libraries.
