Faculty Focus: Gavin Richardson
Among the projects Richardson completed in his semester-long leave was a 25-page research paper examining the reverse image of an ancient Roman coin. Richardson鈥檚 work offered possible explanations for the design based on his readings of history and literature.
Richardson: 鈥淚 don鈥檛 think you can overestimate the importance of time for a project like this 鈥� time to read, time to think, time to dig.鈥� He adds: 鈥淚t鈥檚 nice to have a protected block of time to think these thoughts and chase dead-ends and do the massive amounts of reading it takes to produce high quality scholarship.鈥�
