Woody Doane, professor of sociology and associate dean, Hillyer College, presented a paper titled "The Empire Strikes Back: WASPs, Whites, and the Evolution of Racial-Ethnic Dominance" at the annual meeting of the American Political Science Association in Washington, D.C., on Sept. 4.
In the paper, Doane discussed the evolution of dominant racial-ethnic identities in the United States and their implications for American national identity and racial politics.

Teresa "T" Stores, assistant professor of English and creative writing, College of Arts & Sciences, spent the month of August at the Community of Writers at Squaw Valley in California and the Bread Loaf Writer’s Conference in Vermont. The venerable Bread Loaf Conference this year accepted only 18 percent of applicants. At each conference, Stores presented new fiction and met with agents, editors, and publishers.

Stores’ gender-bending short story, “The Hibernation,” was published in the most recent issue of The Harrington Gay Men’s Fiction Quarterly , (Vol. 7, No. 2 2005: Haworth Press).

Stores has been named a 2005-06 grantee by the Vermont Arts Council for a new collection of short fiction titled Frost Heaves. The series of 12 linked short stories are set in contemporary southern Vermont.
