Daniel F. Chambliss, the Eugene M. Tobin Distinguished Professor of Sociology, has recently published an article "A Neglected Necessity in Liberal Arts Assessment: The Student as the Unit of Analysis" at LiberalArtsOnline, a web journal published by the Center of Inquiry in the Liberal Arts at Wabash College. In the paper, Chambliss argues that gathering information from students - not from departments, programs, chairs or deans - produces a dramatically different understanding of how higher education accomplishes its goals.
Chambliss, chair of the Sociology Department, also recently published a letter in the Chronicle of Higher Education (September 24, 2007) commenting on recent trends in college science teaching.
