First name,Last name,Preferred title,Overview,Position,Department,Individual Chad,Pearson,Instructional Associate Professor/Public Services Reference Librarian,"I am a maverick and interdiscipinary thinker. I am creative and analytical, starting out in the creative arts but finding my professional calling in librarianship. I love to learn about all types of things, which explains my diverse education but also my intense desire to see the value and connections among all types of knowledge. I write creatively and academically, and I like to sing as well. I also enjoy watching films, mostly foreign and independent. I believe, like Aristotle, that it is important to maintain a sense of wonder when approaching knowledge and the world.



REFERENCE PHILOSOPHY



I believe each reference transaction is unique and relies on dialogic interaction on multiple levels. I believe in a maieutic reference process, guiding the patron to his/her own information realization and true inquiry need. I believe reference is a noble calling, a shared information discovery with humanity that allows us to broaden and expand our worldviews.

Speech/Communication",Instructional Associate Professor,University Libraries,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/nabd9c03e Kristan,Poirot,Associate Professor,"Dr. Kristan Poirot engages the concerns of contemporary feminist theorists, rhetoricians, and historians by examining the circulation of sex, gender, and race identifications in U.S. contexts that span from the nineteenth century onward. In her work, Poirot examines number of different rhetorical sites to better understand the situatedness of these identifications. She pays particular attention to social movement rhetorics and public memories about resistance and white heteronormative male supremacy. Her focus on place and context enables a feminist intervention that grapples with both the conceptual and material entailments of sex, gender, and racial disparity.",Associate Professor||Associate Professor,Communication and Journalism||Women & Gender Studies,https://scholars.library.tamu.edu/vivo/display/nd4d220b0
