Our professors are scholar-teachers dedicated to advancing American Studies through classroom instruction and professional participation; research, publication, exhibition and other forms of disseminating scholarship; community involvement and international outreach. They pride themselves on giving students individual attention, and you should find them readily accessible.

As CORE faculty members, they teach most or all of their courses in American Studies.
