ULM English professor translates science-and-literature research for the classroom

Imagine sitting down to analyze a poem in your college English class, then being handed a rock as well. That's what it's like taking a class with Dr. Patrick Morgan, Assistant Professor of English at the University of Louisiana Monroe. A lesson Morgan teaches on reading rocks and poetry has been published by Princeton University Press as a book chapter titled, "Rock Your Classroom," in The Pocket Instructor: Writing. This lesson stems from his larger commitment to interdisciplinary research, studying the connections between geology and literature, including two additional book chapters published recently by Oxford University Press.
