Abstract

Sometimes wise, sometimes sassy, Sage D’Vice is here to dole out advice in response to The Question. This issue, we learn that one of our Bulletin readers has landed a position as a professor and isn’t quite sure what they need to do to make the most as a new professional. The academics are in the bag, but Sage D’ Vice points to some considerations one would do well not to neglect.

Author Biography

  • Sage D’Vice, University of Alabama

    Richard Newton received his PhD in Critical Comparative Scriptures from Claremont Graduate University.

    Dr. Newton’s areas of interest include theory and method in the study of religion, African American history, the New Testament in Western imagination, American cultural politics, and pedagogy in religious studies. His research explores how people create “scriptures” and how those productions operate in the formation of identities and cultural boundaries. He has published an array of journal articles, book chapters and online essays. His book, Identifying Roots: Alex Haley and the Anthropology of Scriptures (Equinox 2020), casts Alex Haley’s Roots as a case study in the dynamics of scriptures and identity politics with critical implication for the study of race, religion, and media. He is also the curator of the  multimedia professional development network, Sowing the Seed: Fruitful Conversations in Religion, Culture, and Teaching.
