Check out our paper about the UNH “Outreach Scholars Academy” published in the latest edition of the Journal of Higher Education Outreach and Engagementhttp://www.uga.edu/ihe/jheoe/11_4.html.  Also explore the new Academy website (and videos) at www.unh.edu/outreach-scholars  which includes the entire (more than 250 page) Academy curriculum launched just a few days ago at the National Outreach Scholarship Conference.

In addition, our two recent presentations at the national outreach scholarship conference www.outreachscholarship.org (hosted by Penn State, Ohio State, Wisconsin, & Georgia) were extremely well received and we have become know as the “national model for faculty development” in this area.
