MESSAGE FROM PROVOST DR. EDDIE PHILLIPS, Ed.D.
It is my pleasure to introduce this year’s Thought Leadership Report, which celebrates the remarkable scholarship, practice and impact of our faculty and staff. Across disciplines, our faculty continue to shape important conversations that advance knowledge, spark innovation, and influence practice and policy across our academic enterprise and beyond. This year’s report highlights work that is both deeply grounded in research and boldly engaged with practice. From fostering civic engagement in young people, to exploring the role of artificial intelligence in academic integrity, to reimagining leadership in early childhood and higher education, our faculty are expanding knowledge while addressing the most pressing challenges of our time. What unites these efforts is a commitment to impact— impact on students, on families, on communities, and on the professions our university serves. The breadth of contributions featured here reflects not only individual expertise, but also a shared mission to drive innovation and success through scholarship. I invite you to read these highlights with pride and appreciation for the extraordinary work of our faculty and staff. Their leadership inspires us all and strengthens our university’s role as a trusted voice in higher education and beyond. With gratitude,
From fostering civic engagement in young people, to exploring the role of artificial intelligence in academic integrity, to reimagining leadership in early childhood and higher education, our faculty are expanding knowledge while addressing the most pressing challenges of our time.
Dr. Eddie Phillips, Ed.D., Provost
