  • Diversity Guide for Denison University

    Diversity Guide for Denison University

    DIVERSITY GUIDE FOR DENISON UNIVERSITY Welcome to Denison University! The three-part Diversity Guide is a resource to enable you to confidentially contact members of the Denison community who are outside of the application and interview process of a particular Department/Program/search committee. The Diversity Guide was originally compiled during the 2008-09 academic year as part of our on-going efforts to help make Denison a more diverse and welcoming community. In recruiting faculty and administrators nationally and internationally, we know that many people will consider applying to Denison who have never visited Granville, Ohio or our beautiful campus. The purpose of this guide is to provide everyone considering employment at Denison access to information about the diversity of our community. In 2006, the general faculty of Denison University passed a resolution on the importance of diversity in the pursuit of a liberal education. In part, that statement says, “Denison is committed to the idea that our community should include people from a wide variety of religious, cultural, ethnic, racial, gender, sexual orientation and socio-economic backgrounds in order to realize the goals of a liberal arts education. Denison University’s commitment to foster a diverse community is central to our mission as a liberal arts college to educate critical thinkers, discerning moral agents and active citizens of a democratic, global society.” (Denison Course Catalog, p. 6 “The Value of Diversity to a Liberal Arts Education at Denison”; see http://denison.edu/forms/course-catalog). In the three parts of this Guide, you will find information about people at Denison who represent some of the diversity in our community.
  • Derk Visser December 2018 Obituary

    Derk Visser December 2018 Obituary

    With sadness, the family of Derk Visser, Ph.D. of Trappe, Pennsylvania, share news of his death on December 16, 2018. He was 88. Dr. Visser retired from Ursinus College in 1999 where he began teaching in 1968 after receiving a Masters degree in history from the University of Pennsylvania (1960) and a Doctorate of Philosophy, also in history, from Bryn Mawr College (1966). Prior to joining the Ursinus faculty, Dr. Visser was an instructor in Latin, French, and History at the Haverford (PA) School. Dr. Visser also held positions as Assistant Professor at Muhlenberg College and Instructor at Temple University where he taught evening and summer school courses for many years. Born in the Netherlands, Dr. Visser grew up in a village on the outskirts of Amsterdam and was the youngest of four children. The post-depression 1930s and the German occupation of 1940- 1945, as well as a Calvinist education juxtaposed with time spent exploring the Dutch landscape alone and in fondly remembered family excursions, stirred a life-long interest in the relationship between the human context and the natural world. As a young adult Dr. Visser joined the Dutch Merchant Marines which led him to the coasts of Africa, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East as well as ports across Europe and earned him the moniker of “professor” for his penchant for documenting his experiences with a camera and on a typewriter. Dr. Visser drew on these experiences throughout his academic career, both to enliven his seminar lectures and to refine the scope of his research. His wanderings resulted in a personal catalog of climate change and habitat loss.
