Hamilton Welcomes New Faculty for 2023-24
I am excited to welcome a new, talented cohort of teacher-scholars to our campus,” Dean of Faculty Ngonidzashe Munemo said. “Each new faculty member will add to the renewal -- of what we teach and how we teach our students, to the conversations across hallways and walkways -- that is essential for a vibrant liberal arts college. I look forward to the myriad ways that our new colleagues will invigorate our campus.”
Among this year’s newcomers are those with expertise in:
- How people use languages and visual cues to creatively present themselves and others in various settings
- Race and racism
- The impact that diplomatic relations have on trade outcomes among developing countries
- How human development and land use affect microbial communities and ecosystem functioning in lakes and rivers
- The causes and consequences of modern biodiversity loss
