Stndent mentoring and research impact • Given my 2oth-century German art song expertise, Great Britain's University of Nottingham has invited me to serve as external evaluator of a PhD dissertation, fall 2013. Read, critique, and provide a written report spring 2014. Dissertation defense is April 2014. This teaching honor demon­ strates the international inrpact of scholarly work. • I have posted a number of my research essays at Academia.edu. From 1-29 November 2013 there were 34 downloads. • Since my 1995 MSU appointment I have mentored an extraordinary number of graduate student research papers for the research and bibliography class MUS 700. I work with students to build their papers from abstract proposals, outlines, introductions, intermediary drafts, to a final paper ap­ proximately 10 pages in length. (I also present a model research paper to MUS 700 students.) Since fall 2005 this has totaled 224 MUS 700 papers. Student mentoring includes approximately ten letters of recommendation a year for students applying for music graduate study at other universi­ ties. Northwestern University accepted one of those students (Andrew Mcintyre) into their master's music history program, fall 2013. • In Honors MUS 239, Honors MUS 346, MUS 543/683, 544/684, 545/685, and 546/686 (the latter four upper-level music history courses devoted to western European art music during the Renaissance, the Baroque, the Classical, and the Romantic periods), I require two papers. Since fall2005 this has resulted in the mentoring of 220 student papers from drafts to final submission.

*Note: The Music Department has not mandated a prescribed number of scholarly activities for tenure or promotion. It does, however, use a 1-5 rat­ ing system to assess the quality and impact of scholarship, with 1 the highest number. My research consistently falls within the 1 category as docu­ mented in my Curriculum Vitae and the matrix above. Time period beains with the semester in which I applied for professor rank.
