faculty/staff news Great Teacher Awards: Two Tyler Faculty Honored As a painter, Stanley Whitney ordinarily communicates his thoughts and ideas through vivid brush strokes. But for 32 years, he has shown equal skill with a different kind of canvas — the students. “As an artist, I am eternally silent, so in the classroom, I get a chance to be creative through my lesson plans,” Whitney said. Whitney is a professor in the painting, drawing and sculpture department at the Tyler School of Art. His unique ability to captivate and educate art students, residents and fellows alike has earned him a 2006 <strong>Temple</strong> <strong>University</strong> Great Teacher Award. “Stanley has motivated me and countless other students to pursue art consciously, intellectually, politically and critically,” a former Tyler student said. “He never lets a student slip through a course casually and requires a rigorous thoughtfulness from both the students who are struggling and those who are not.” Whitney earned his bachelor’s degree in fine art from the Kansas City Art Institute and his master’s degree from Yale <strong>University</strong>. He came to <strong>Temple</strong> in 1973 from a teaching position at the <strong>University</strong> of Rhode Island. According to his students, his honest critiques have gained him respect as an educator while also keeping many in fearful anticipation of his opinion. “He has the ability to rip you to shreds with one phrase and leave you in the studio with the aftermath. But if it wouldn’t have been for his candidness, I would not be the artist I am today.” “For me, teaching has its rewards in knowing that I’m talking to young people who will be the future of the art world,” Whitney said proudly. “Having input into the future gives me a chance to make a real mark on the art profession in a different way than I can with my paintings.” - STANLEY WHITNEY “I love watching students grow intellectually. And I truly like teaching entry-level, introductory courses, so I can enable students to see the potentials of art and of history and share my enthusiasm for the subject matter.” - DR. THERESE DOLAN Dr. Therese Dolan herself acknowledges her own deep-rooted drive to learn, accompanied by a passion for teaching. At age four, she ran away—to school, following her older sister to her kindergarten class “because I wanted to be in school and learn new things.” The results of a Kuder Preference Test she took in high school suggested she was best suited for a career as a stand-up comedian, and while her lectures are peppered with humor, she cannot remember ever wanting to do anything but teach. “The first question on that Kuder Preference Test in high school was ‘Which would you prefer to do? 1) Read a book, 2) Listen to music or 3) Visit an art museum’ and I puzzled over my response because I wanted to do all three.” Teaching has been the perfect profession that has allowed me to do all of them. The opportunity to work as a governess in Rome for a year opened her eyes to the worlds of both art and history. “I taught myself Rome, took Italian classes and traveled all over Europe,” she recalled. “I was hooked. When I came back, I began studying art history at Bryn Mawr.” She earned both her master’s and doctoral degrees and joined the art history faculty at <strong>Temple</strong>’s Tyler School of Art in 1981. And the rest, as they say, is (art) history! “She is a passionate and innovative scholar … a dedicated teacher and an incredibly engaging communicator [who] brings the study of art alive for her students,” wrote a former student and colleague. “She pushes her students to move beyond reactionary opinion and become independent thinkers.” Even after decades at the front of a classroom, she confesses to still feeling nervous before every lecture. “The truth is I barely sleep at all the night before the first day of the new semester. I’m that anxious to teach and learn. And to do my best.” And clearly, she has. On April 11, Dolan received a 2006 Great Teacher Award. TYLER GESTURES WINTER 2006 13
