GROVE CITY, Pa. – Grove City College professors Drs. Shane Brower and Dorian Yeager have been awarded sabbaticals during the 2008-09 academic year.
Yeager, professor of computer science and mathematics, will take his sabbatical in the fall semester of 2008 to develop a text titled, “Obect-Oriented Programming Languages and Event-Driven Programming,” focusing on a single paradigm and style of interaction in programming languages.
Brower, chairman of the department of physics and associate professor of physics, will take his sabbatical in the spring semester of 2009 to study the optical properties of various thin film metal hydrides. He will work with Dr. Daniel Azofeifa, a member of the department of physics and the Materials Science and Engineering Research Center of the University of Costa Rica.
Brower will also look into the possibility of developing a study abroad program for Grove City College students. He has tentative plans to offer a study abroad astronomy course from Costa Rica in January 2009.
Since the inception of the sabbatical program during the 2004-05 academic year, 11 faculty members have been awarded sabbaticals.
