This portfolio makes the case for my effectiveness as a teacher, scholar, and colleague at Medaille College. It is a selective and purposeful record of my two-plus decades of learning, growth, and change as supported by evidence: written documents and images. It provides accountability to the College community and, because it is publicly available online, it provides transparency to the wider community.

It answers the questions that the public can rightfully ask if I claim that the special features of higher education and its professoriate -- academic freedom, tenure, shared governance -- produce a scholarly career that is worth supporting and worth exposing young people to.
What have I done in my career?
What have I done recently?
What do I do all day?
My scholarly life has been public, especially for the last decade. With totally paperless classes since 1998, all of my scholarly writing, my course materials, texts, student projects, and much of my administrative work have been publicly available at toLearn.net and RicciStreet.net. As of 2006, the new faculty handbook is requiring faculty portfolios and encouraging that they be made publicly available on the Web.
This portfolio is offered in fulfillment of the requirement in the handbooks of Medaille College, Buffalo, NY, Volume IV: Faculty Handbook (.pdf), section 4.5.4.3 Faculty Portfolio. It is organized as that section suggests but much of it references -- links to -- material at toLearn.net and RicciStreet.net. Documents too large to fit on my server, especially videos, are available by email request.
