A brief description or a copy of the institution’s policy regarding interdisciplinary research:
In addition to the “typical” evidence of scholarly excellence (e.g. number and significance of refereed articles and books and publicly performed artistic works), non-traditional scholarship that interdisciplinary scholars often produce, such as “publicly disseminated reports from action research and/or service-learning projects” and “technical reports from consulting projects” are recognized as credible evidence of excellence. In addition, Macalester's focus on “the quality of the activity and involvement” rather than on simple quantitative measures of scholarship supports interdisciplinary work.
