Shavindrie Cooray - Management

Dr. Shavindrie ("Shavi") Cooray examines the relationships between humans and technology with her students by embracing technology and by looking at the bigger picture - something she has done extensively in her Ph.D. research and as a former analyst in the corporate world.

Jeff Lemberg - Multimedia Journalism

When Assistant Professor of Communication Jeff Lemberg arrived at Curry College, part of his charge was moving the program curriculum into the multimedia world - a world that has become increasingly important, especially within the media industry, and one that demands a broad set of skills for success.

William Topper - MBA Director

"I believe that as a professor, you not only have to bring relevance from a technical perspective, but you have to bring something of interest to students. We are tasked with constantly answering the question 'so what?' It's our job to tell the stories that answer that question."

Heather Shaw - Graphic Design

"The challenge of majoring in a visual field is that there's no right or wrong, no true or false; there are only degrees of better or degrees of worse," says Heather Shaw, assistant professor of graphic design at Curry College. "So we teach students how to become creative and critical thinkers - design thinkers - and creative problem solvers."

Jennifer Balboni - Criminal Justice

Energy...It is a word that Professor Jennifer Balboni constantly uses when describing her Criminal Justice classes at Curry College. "I tell my students at the beginning of each semester, 'In my class, I need you to bring your 'A' game...everyday.' We really do take it to another level."

Jerry Gibbs - Communication

"What I love most about video is the ever-changing uses for the skill set," says Gibbs. "Today video is the key source of information and entertainment on the Internet, and it is giving this generation of students hundreds of new employment choices."

Allan Hunter - English and Honors

"Literature is a force to help people open their eyes and expand their thinking," says Allan Hunter, professor of English and Honors. "The stories we discuss in class nudge students to examine the important issues that everyone faces. Literature helps us sort out life. It helps us think more clearly. And when we think more clearly, we write better and we communicate better."

Katherine Morrison - Community Health and Wellness

Dr. Katherine Morrison likes to challenge her students. She believes that as long as a mutual respect exists in the classroom, they tend to learn more by questioning her authority. Perhaps it's because she's been challenging herself all these years.

Tracy Wang - Mathematics

Mathematics Professor Tracy Wang has always tried to give her students a sense of what life is like in her native China. But she recognized the distinct difference between telling and showing.
