COLLEGE OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL SCIENCES SCHOLARSHIP PORTFOLIO (2013) | Page 5

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS
As with any major project, the success and the joy of the work comes from the people you work
with. The College of Health and Social Science’s Task Force on Scholarship was charged by
the Dean to (a) undertake an examination of the values and principles that guide scholarship in
the College and (b) draft a statement that reflects these values and principles. To that end, the
collaboration between the faculty on this Task Force and key staff throughout the College have
produced both the CHSS Vision on Scholarship and the Scholarship Portfolio that you see before
you! It is our collective hope that this Scholarship Portfolio honors the creative and scholarly energy
of our faculty and students and that the collective work of our community of scholars turns our
Vision on Scholarship into a reality.
