North Park honored its faculty at the annual University Convocation September 17, installing new and tenured faculty and administrators, and recognizing those who have published books and articles in the last year.

In her address to the nine professors who attained promotions or tenure at the ceremony in Anderson Chapel, President Mary Surridge commended them on their hard work and devotion to North Park.

Provost Michael O. Emerson recognized the 10 faculty members who have recently published books, which ranged in topic from mathematics to Hip Hop music and its application to theology.

鈥淲ords are precious and valued, holy and sacred,鈥� Emerson said. 鈥淭o write is to contribute to the divine creation, to be a writer is to be called by God鈥檚 hand to be co-creator.鈥�

Ingrid Tenglin, assistant vice president of human resources, installed two new administrators: Lisa Ncube, associate provost for enrollment management; and Anthony Scola, vice president for enrollment management and marketing.
鈥淲e need the expertise and skills, the passion and commitment you bring to this place,鈥� Tenglin said. 鈥淲e are thankful you have chosen to serve with us.鈥�
The faculty members were honored at a reception after the service.
