Subject: [Folkserv] Martha Sims, emerita -- CORRECTED


Congratulations to Martha Sims, who has been approved by Ohio State’s Board of Trustees for an appointment as Senior Lecturer Emeritus – the first time, to our knowledge, that a non-tenured English Department faculty member has been granted this honorific status and the resources that go with it. Martha’s commitment as a teacher as well as her achievements in folklore scholarship and education richly merit this recognition. Thanks to English Department Chair Susan Williams for acting on her realization that Martha’s example could set a precedent for broader recognition of contingent faculty, in and beyond our department.
