VALDOSTA — 美高梅博彩 has selected 克里斯汀·詹姆斯博士 as its first Fuller E. Callaway Professorial Chair of Philosophy and Religious Studies honoree.
“I was genuinely surprised, honored, and humbled. It is always wonderful to receive an award, but you don’t do the work you do every day to receive awards,” she said. “You do it because you love the work. 你关心学生，关心大学如何改变他们的生活。 如果你喜欢它，你关心它，你会觉得奖励是一种动力。 It makes me want to keep going and do even more in the future.”
詹姆斯于2002年夏天加入美高梅博彩，担任哲学和宗教研究系的助理教授，并于2006年晋升为副教授。 她于2007年获得终身教职，并于2011年成为正教授。 She has also served as the interim coordinator of the university’s Women’s and Gender Studies Program.
The Fuller E. Callaway Professorial Chair supports vs上’s efforts to recruit and retain highly talented and dedicated faculty. 这是一个终身职位，由卡拉威基金会公司支持。 富勒E.卡拉威教授椅子捐赠。
James’s favorite courses to teach are PHIL 2010: Fundamentals of Philosophy, PHIL 2020: Principles of Logic and Argumentation, and HONS 3999 Introduction to Honors Research. 她说，这些课程让学生对哲学产生兴趣，并为学生提供进行研究、发表论文和在会议上发言的机会。
詹姆斯是一位活跃的学者，出版了两本教科书，一本编辑集，以及一系列同行评审的文章，书籍章节和广泛主题的专业演讲。 她是一位不知疲倦的本科生导师； 她积极参与美高梅博彩和文化活动。
“Faculty members who receive these honors are able to use their time and resources to benefit the campus through new initiatives, grants, donations, and experiential learning connections in the community,” she said. “It opens the door to take new chances and begin new projects that students can participate in. This will mean new opportunities for vs上 students for years to come.”
This summer James will lead vs上’s inaugural College Readiness Through Civic Engagement Initiative, which is funded through the Teagle Foundation’s Knowledge for Freedom Initiative.
“It is a program for high school students to discuss theories of government and ethics before they come to college,” she said. “They will be able to come to vs上 and see the campus and participate in a series of talks and discussions like a college class, so we can also recruit them to come to vs上 for college while they are here.”
