M.F.A.'s who publish in academic journals can be perceived differently as academics. Ph.D.'s who do creative activity (screenplays, videos, etc.) can be perceived differently, also. Sometimes the reaction is positive, and sometimes not. This panel explores the concept of our expected academic roles, and the possible rewards and consequences of stepping outside our "tribe." Moderator: Dennis Conway, Valdosta State University Panelists: Dennis Conway, Valdosta State University Michael Whalen, Santa Clara University Scott Hodgson, University of Oklahoma Respondent: David Byland, University of Alabama
