  • Faculty Scholarship at Whitworth University – May 2014-May 2015 –
    Faculty Scholarship at Whitworth University – May 2014-May 2015 – Faculty Scholarship at Whitworth The Whitworth faculty includes 156 Christian teacher-scholars who engage in research, writing Who We Are and creative performance to advance their understanding of the world, to enrich their teaching, to share their discoveries, and to bring new information and insights into their classrooms. Organizations beyond our campus recognize the high quality of our faculty scholarship; many support Whitworth research programs. Whitworth faculty members have received grants from a broad range of organizations, including Fulbright Scholarship in Residence, The Lilly Foundations, the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust, NASA, the National Science Foundation, and the Welch Family Foundation. Whitworth faculty members are engaged in a wide array of research, creative production What We Do and performance, and scholarly projects. The work of our natural scientists ranges from research into celiac disease to the brooding habitat of the greater sage-grouse to potential medications for Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s to space-flight propulsion. Scholars in the humanities publish poetry, examine the work of Franciscans in China, explore the writing of Great Awakening figure George Whitefield, examine intellectual virtues, and discuss religious activism as part of the Civil Rights Movement in the Northwest. Social scientists measure the success of HIV/AIDS non-government organizations among Nairobi’s youth, analyze media coverage of law and faith, explore the emerging church, and describe effective means to teach literacy. And faculty in the arts perform, contribute to exhibits, write about microcontrollers and music, create arrangements for jazz ensembles, and contribute to the field of theatre technology.

Together with Corban’s outstanding faculty and dedicated staff, I heartily embrace the idea that Christians are to be salt and light in their culture. We are to make every difference possible for Jesus Christ. We are to do this not just by spreading the good news of the Gospel, but also by exerting a Christian influence in every sphere of life—including politics, the media, the arts and the academy. At Corban, we are committed to equipping a new generation to think critically and operate from our one central foundation, Jesus Christ. To provide a Christian higher education is to equip today’s students to approach, respond to and serve a world that’s in desperate need around us.
