Faculty Named to Engaged Scholar Program

NAKHE, an inclusive community of kinesiology professionals, extends its mentoring efforts into the area of scholarship by supporting mentoring and networking opportunities for tenured associate professors. The Engaged Scholar Program encourages faculty to continue their professional development efforts by providing financial support and a mentor/senior scholar.
For the second time in five years, a faculty member at Georgia Southern University has been named to the National Association for Kinesiology in Higher Education’s (NAKHE) Engaged Scholar Program.
Charles “Hal” Wilson, Ph.D., associate professor of kinesiology in the Department of Health Sciences and Kinesiology, has been selected for the program. Over the next 12-month period, Wilson will have the opportunity to collaborate with senior scholar, Doug Hochstetler, Ph.D., associate dean of the College of Health and Behavioral Studies at James Madison University, with the intent of completing a scholarly product.
