The Sherl K. Coleman and Margaret E. Guitteau Professorship in the Humanities

The Coleman-Guitteau Professorship seeks to promote the development of new or substantially revised interdisciplinary undergraduate humanities courses which focus on basic questions of human nature, conduct, and culture.

Coleman-Guitteau courses should employ pedagogical approaches that emphasize:
• open and critical thinking
• active student participation
• independent inquiry
• the free exchange of ideas

While Coleman-Guitteau courses must be designed and intended primarily for undergraduates, they may also be open to graduate students.

$4,000 Course Enrichment

The Coleman-Guitteau Professorship makes available up to $4,000 for:
• curriculum development
• course enrichment
• guest speakers
• instructional materials
• classroom activities
• related research assistance
• other activities related to the course

$3,000 Summer Support
Coleman-Guitteau Professors will receive $3,000 (plus OPE) in summer salary support.

Team-Teaching Proposals Encouraged
Team-taught courses are encouraged, particularly those involving faculty from different departments. Team-taught courses are eligible for a single Coleman-Guitteau award of up to $4,000 in course enrichment funds. In the case of a team-taught course, both instructors will receive $3,000 (plus OPE) in summer salary for curriculum development.

For more information, plese contact Julia Heydon at 346-1001 or jheydon@uoregon.edu.
