MUW faculty participate in  noteworthy events

  
COLUMBUS, Miss – The following Mississippi University for Women faculty will participate in events related to their fields of study:
   
Dr. Willard Peveler, assistant professor of health and kinesiology, was invited to participate in the Oxford Round Table in Oxford England. He is attending this event through April 7.
   
According to the Oxford Round Table’s website, www.oxfordroundtable.co.uk, “the purpose of the Oxford Round Table is to promote human advancement and understanding through the improvement of education.” It provides a forum for the study and consideration of current issues facing state and national systems of education.
   
A small select group of people from both private and public sectors across the world meet periodically. The individuals are identified through screening processes ranging from previous involvement or recommendations of actively involved persons in higher education and public school leadership. 
   
Dr. Martin L. Hatton, chair of the Department of Communication and associate professor, will present a paper at the 2006 Southern States Communication Association 76th annual convention in Dallas on April 7.
   
The paper, titled “Testing Motivating Influences in the Production of First-Person and Third-Person Perceptions,” was selected by the Communication Theory Division of SSCA for presentation.
