The celebration recognizes WVU’s productive and creative faculty who have published a book, released a CD or produced a full-length work in another medium during the previous calendar year.

Yaa Gyasi’s “Transcendent Kingdom” tells the story of a Ghanaian family living in Alabama that is deeply affected by addiction and depression. Now in its seventh year, the Campus Read provides opportunities to engage the campus, particularly first-year freshmen, in a year-long discussion about the themes of a single book.
To ensure everyone has the opportunity to make their voice heard, the deadline for faculty and staff to take part in the 2023 WVU Culture and Engagement Survey has been extended.
Empathy, hope and a drive to find solutions that will change their communities and the world for the better characterize the new cohort of Bucklew Scholars in the running for the Foundation Scholarship, the highest academic scholarship at WVU.
The three are Erin Goodykoontz, teaching professor in the School of Mathematical and Data Sciences; Paul Miller, teaching professor and associate chair in the Department Physics and Astronomy; and Sarah Morris, assistant professor of English and coordinator of the Undergraduate Writing Program in the Department of English.
The Open Enrollment period for Plan Year 2024 for WVU benefits-eligible faculty and staff will run through May 15. Open Enrollment is your only opportunity to make changes to your elected insurance benefits without a qualifying life event. All changes for Plan Year 2024 will be effective July 1, 2023.
