Texas A&M International University's Dr. Sean Chadwell, assistant professor of English in the College of Arts and Sciences, will spend part of his summer examining the intersection of liberal arts and regional study at Ferrum College in Ferrum, Virginia.

Chadwell was selected as one of 24 professors from across the nation to participate in the National Endowment for the Humanities' (NEH) Summer Institute for College and University Teachers. He will also receive a stipend for his time.

The Institute brings together educators to pursue the dynamic opportunities regional study can bring to the liberal arts, including using local authors in classrooms and studying local issues from a variety of educational traditions.
