Appendix D: UW Faculty Description
The University of Wyoming has world-renowned faculty members in virtually every field.
These men and women have attained international recognition by virtue of their creative
work, depth of scholarship, and contributions to teaching. Their accomplishments and
reputations help attract outstanding younger faculty members to the university, and their
expertise and intellectual leadership help guide UW’s curriculum as well as their colleagues’
scholarly work. The following list gives brief sketches of five outstanding faculty members
representing different disciplines spanning four of UW’s colleges. There are many others
who are equally qualified to be on this list. A systematic effort to recruit additional faculty
members at this level of professional attainment will add substantially to the university’s
mission.

Professor Teresa Bogard is a professor in the Department of Music. Her scholarly
interests include historical performance, early pianos, and works by women composers.
She won a Fulbright Fellowship to study fortepiano at the Royal Conservatory of the
