THE MONMOUTH COLLEGE
FACULTY FORUM was established in June of 1963 by Dean Harry S. Manley to
"provide a means through which selected scholarly papers written by
Monmouth College faculty would be given a wider distribution." The
source of papers was the faculty colloquium series, a program in which
each month one faculty member presented a report on recent research and
reflection. Manley wrote:
The college
underwrites this publication out of a conviction that it will:
| 1. Encourage members
of the faculty to pursue their research interests and thereby stimulate
scholarship and faculty growth. 2. Enhance the
interest of advanced students in scholarly writing and research.
3. Give the faculty a
format for confrontation with their peers.
4. Support our
academic policy that competent teaching requires continuing research by
the teacher. |
After a lapse of some
years, publication of the series was resumed in 1991. In the spring of
1993 the Faculty and Institutional Development Committee recommended
local distribution in electronic form with only a few printed copies for
authors and institutional use.
