Our Mission
The Office of Academic Scholarship (OAS) aims to foster a culture of scholarly inquiry at Franklin University. By directing faculty, student, and staff attention to innovative approaches that address academic and real-world problems, the Office seeks to empower a broad community of learners to create new knowledge within and beyond the classroom.
Our Team
Dr. Evan Chaloupka directs the University's writing program and teaches writing, rhetoric, and literature. His research interests include the rhetoric of health and medicine, narrative theory, and the teaching of research writing. Broadly stated, his research examines how storytelling and rhetorical strategies related to disability circulate among different communicative contexts. His work has been published in Literature and Medicine, The Journal of Narrative Theory, Disability and Society, and The CEA Critic. As a teacher, Dr. Chaloupka aims to help students see themselves as contributors to the academic and professional conversations that they find meaningful. He sees any class he teaches as a space of discovery and dialogue, and as a teacher, he aims to elevate the valuable observations and insights his students make beyond the walls of the classroom.
