Dawn.Bartusch@valpo.eduBiography
“I am delighted to be back at Valparaiso University, where I earned my undergraduate degree. I truly enjoy the opportunities for interaction and involvement with students that teaching here offers. My constant goal as a teacher is to challenge students’ taken-for-granted assumptions about the social world, and to encourage them to ‘think sociologically’ about the world and their places in it.”
