From the President Campbell University grew in many ways with the addition of its seventh school — North Carolina’s first medical school in over 35 years — during the 2013-14 academic year. The Jerry M. Wallace School of Osteopathic Medicine opened its doors and welcomed a charter class of 160 students last fall. The school also brought in approximately 70 faculty, staff and administration, many of them housed at the new Levine Hall of Medical Sciences. The work of some of these new doctors and professors can be found in this 2014 edition of Campbell Accolades. With the addition of other new programs like physician assistant, physical therapy, homeland security and public health and future programs such as nursing and engineering, we expect this annual publication to get thicker and thicker with each passing year. We are once again proud of the scholarly attainments of our faculty. The 2014 edition of Accolades lists and celebrates the many published works, presentations, earned grants and awards earned throughout the past academic year. We also feature the winners of our two D.P. Russ Jr. and Walter S. Jones Sr. Alumni Awards for excellence in teaching and research. The awards, now in their second year, went to Department of Religion and Philosophy Chair Glenn Jonas for research and Professor of Business and Economics Yu-Mong Hsiao for teaching. And again this year, Campbell’s faculty made national headlines for their work. Last year, religion Professor Adam English toured the national media circuit for his book on the history of Saint Nicholas (Santa Claus). This year, medical school Professor and Associate Dean Dr. Robert Hasty has been featured in a number of publications in multiple countries for his research on medical errors on the popular website Wikipedia. I invite you to explore this annual report and discover for yourself the talented men and women who make up the distinguished faculty of Campbell University. You’ll find that their scholarly achievements are in direct correlation to their performance in the classroom. That combination creates a strong and vibrant academic community at Campbell University — where faith, learning and service excel.

r. Glenn Jonas’ book commemorating the bicentennial of Raleigh’s oldest Baptist church was so well received and appreciated, the church just down the street from it wanted Jonas to write one for them as well. “Nurturing the Vision: First Baptist Church, Raleigh, 1812-2012,” chronicled the 200-year-old church decade by decade from North Carolina’s growth as a fairly new state to the Civil War, through World War II and into the 21st century. Jonas, a professor of religion and chairman of Campbell University’s Department of Religion and Philosophy, published the book through Mercer Press in 2012 after roughly four years of research. “I think it’s different from other books on church history,” Jonas said. “While many may focus solely on the church, I wrote in each chapter about what was going on in the nation at the time — or the city of Raleigh at the time — and intersected that with what was going on with the church. Those interested in Raleigh history, North Carolina history or Baptist history in general will find something interesting in this book.” The book — in addition to several peer-reviewed articles, essays, book chapters and reviews during the 2013-14 academic year — earned Jonas the D.P. Russ Jr. and Walter S. Jones Sr. Alumni Award for Research Excellence, now in its second year. Jonas said he was honored to receive the award and even more so because
it recognized research. “I’ve always felt like the ideal faculty member is a person who can balance good teaching with good scholarship,” Jonas said. “We as professors are deficient if we’re just teaching the same stuff over and over again. Research in our fields allows us to keep what we’re teaching in the classroom updated and fresh. To have been recognized for teaching in the past and now research is very fulfilling for me, professionally.”
Round Two Shortly after “Nurturing the Vision” was published, Jonas was approached by church leaders from First Presbyterian in downtown Raleigh, located “just a few churches” down from First Baptist. First Presbyterian will be celebrating its bicentennial in 2016 and has worked with the First Baptist church leaders on several projects over the years. Jonas said he was hesitant at first to take on another project the magnitude of his previous book, but the more he thought about it, the more exciting the idea became. “I had just climbed Mt. Everest with the last book, and originally I told them I didn’t want to turn around and start climbing back up again,” Jonas said. “And I knew it’d be more of a stretch for me to write about a Presbyterian church, since I had so much background knowledge of the Baptist church going in to the first book.”
But Jonas soon realized that much of First Baptist’s history — how it survived wars and the role it played in other important parts of North Carolina and American history — would mirror First Presbyterian’s. And the differences in those histories would prove to be equally fascinating, Jonas said. “I’ve learned a great deal about the two pastors from the churches during the Civil War era,” Jonas said. “Lately, I’ve been wondering about just how well these two men — very prominent and well-known ministers — knew each other. Did they see each other and work together a lot? Did they go and have coffee? What was the nature of their relationship? Little things like that have made this more fun to do.” Jonas has taught at Campbell for 20 years. He has received numerous “Professor of the Year” and Dean’s Award accolades and recently had the Pine Burr Yearbook dedicated to him. Dr. Barry Jones, who nominated him for the research award, called Jonas “a model of collegiality.” Dr. Adam English, who presented him the trophy at the Senior Awards Banquet in April, said, “Dr. Jonas mentored me as a young professor with wisdom and professionalism. For that I will always be grateful.”

The D.P. Russ Jr. and Walter S. Jones Sr. Alumni Award for Teaching Excellence
Dr. Yu-Mong Hsiao Professor of Business and Economics BY BILLY LIGGETT

iminutive in stature and softspoken, Dr. Yu-Mong Hsiao stands tall and is heard loud and clear in her classroom. Recognized for willingness to experiment with teaching styles and her meticulous tracking of student learning and performance, Hsiao was honored with the D.P. Russ Jr. and Walter S. Jones Sr. Alumni Award for Teaching Excellence in 2014. Her colleague, Dr. Mark Steckbeck, nominated Hsiao for the award, noting that he’s regularly observed her going out of the way to assist students who may be struggling in her economics or quantitative methods courses. Now in her 30th year at Campbell, Hsiao said it was a “huge surprise” when she learned of the honor. “I could not believe what I heard until Dr. Steckbeck reassured me it was real,” she said. She was doubly surprised that she was also the recipient of the LundyFetterman School of Business’ Dean’s Excellence award, presented to her this spring by Dean Keith Faulkner. “Over the past 30 years, she has risen to the rank of professor, obtained tenure and taught a broad range of courses in accounting, business administration and economics at both the undergraduate and graduate level,” Faulkner wrote. “Both current
students and alumni alike will testify to the demanding nature of Professor Hsiao’s instruction style. She is an advocate for setting high expectations and for providing students with the tools to achieve the standard.”
does Hsiao’s regular use of music and movie clips at the beginning of class to illustrate economic concepts. An example is the Disney-Pixar short, “One Man Band,” which provides a fun lesson in monopolies and duopolies.
Encouraging Thought
Hsiao has embraced technology in her teaching methods as well, regularly using Blackboard to manage her courses and posting all of her lectures and assignments online via Tegrity software.
In her Economics 201 course, Hsiao offers the well-known “prisoners’ dilemma” to her students … a lesson in strategy in social science that helps students understand what governs the balance between cooperation and competition in business, politics or social settings. The scenario reads: “The police have caught two suspects (A and B) involved in a bank robbery case, but only have enough evidence to imprison each for 1 year. The police question each in separate rooms, offer each the following deal: * If you confess and implicate your partner, you go free. * If you do not confess but your partner implicates you, you get 20 years in prison. * If you both confess, each gets 8 years in prison. * If you were Suspect A, would you confess or not?”
“Her students consistently score higher than the national average, offering proof that her interactive teaching and learning strategies are highly effective,” Faulkner added. She has been awarded a Certificate of Achievement for the Teaching Innovation Program from the American Economic Association, and each year, she attends teaching workshops in order to remain current on the best practices in the teaching of economics. A North Carolina Certified Public Accountant, Hsiao earned her an MBA from Mississippi State University, her Ph.D. and Master of Economics from North Carolina State University, and her BA in economics from the National Taiwan University.
These thought-provoking scenarios often lead to lively discussions. As

DR. ROBERT HASTY
Wiki’s Weakness Campbell med school professor’s published research on errors in Wikiepedia’s medical articles has earned national and worldwide attention
BY BILLY LIGGETT
T
he question first entered the mind of Dr. Robert Hasty two years ago in a room full of young residents at a teaching hospital in Florida. The vice chairman of Nova Southeastern University’s Internal Medicine Department and the founding director of Palmetto General Hospital’s residency program at the time, Hasty posed a question to soon-to-be physicians and noticed many of them immediately breaking out their smart phones and tablets to find the answer. Their online destination? Wikipedia — today considered the “single leading source” of health care information for medical students, professionals and patients, according to a 2014 study by the IMS Health Institution. Hasty’s question? Just how reliable of a source can Wikipedia be when the information can be written and edited by anybody?
was the lead author of the country’s first published study that examines the accuracy of content for common medical conditions on Wikipedia. “Wikipedia in Comparison to PeerReviewed Medical Knowledge in the 10 Most Common Medical Conditions” appeared in May in the Journal of the American Osteopathic Association. Media outlets around the nation and the world have reported on Hasty’s findings, with articles appearing in Huffington Post, New York Daily News, BBC, the Daily Mail in London and many others. “I think that the attention that the article has generated is important, and I would encourage patients to consult their health care providers and not solely rely on information that they find in Wikipedia,” Hasty said. “I also think it is important for clinicians not to rely on information found in Wikipedia for treatment decisions regarding their patients.”
“Wikipedia is a bit like flatulence for clinicians. Everyone does it, but no one wants to admit to it,” Hasty says. “It’s an easy-to-access source for anybody, but who’s editing it? [Content] can come from anywhere — a first-year med student or a professional who could stand to gain by promoting one treatment over another. Those are valid concerns.”
Significant Discordance
Hasty, now the vice president of medical education and regional associate dean for the Jerry M. Wallace School of Osteopathic Medicine,
“The idea behind Wikipedia is that the masses make it a better product over time, but our research says it still has a long way to go,” Hasty said.
In their study, Hasty and 16 coauthors — most of them residents during Hasty’s time in Florida — discovered that of the 10 mostsearched medical conditions, nine of the 10 Wikipedia articles on those conditions contained “statistically significant errors.”
“That’s not to say there aren’t errors in peer-reviewed literature as well. But there’s more cause for concern when the material online doesn’t have the appropriate peer-vetting process.” To get an idea of the behemoth Wikipedia has become in its 13year history, consider this: on any given day, 15 percent of all internet users visit the site at least once. The online encyclopedia has 1,600 times as many articles as its forefather, the Encyclopedia Britannica, and it is the world’s fifth-most popular website with editions in 287 languages. If you were to print out Wikipedia — a task groups like Pedia Press and IndieGoGo are ready to undertake — the result would be almost 1.2 million pages long. A large chunk of those pages would be dedicated to health care. According to the IMS Health Institute, the top 100 English language health care-related pages on Wikipedia were accessed 1.9 million times in 2013. In its recent study, the group reported that information on these pages is subject to constant change, often overseen by “informal or formal working groups.” The lack of formal peer review is what spawned Hasty’s study. “The slightest change or miswording can change public health fairly significantly,” Hasty said. “[Physicians and students] have developed confidence in using Wikipedia,

thinking it’s a well-reviewed peerreferenced publication. For patients, it’s the first thing that pops up on a Google search.”
and our study shows that more work needs to be done to improve accuracy for a resource used by the majority of clinicians.”
Hasty and his team took the Top 10 most common conditions in terms of expenditure in the U.S. and found their corresponding Wikipedia articles for their research — coronary artery disease, concussions, lung cancer, depression, arthritis, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, hypertension, diabetes, back pain and hyperlipidemia. In a blinded process, two randomly assigned students reviewed each article and identified all assertions [defined as “a confident statement of fact or belief ”] made in the article. They compared those assertions made in Wikipedia with references made in UpToDate, the peer-reviewed medical encyclopedia source purchased by Campbell’s med school and currently used by its students and faculty.
According to Hasty, most of the errors were “relatively minor.” One example of a significant error was with the diagnosis of hypertension, where Wikipedia stated that traditionally, the diagnosis is required to have “three separate sphygmomanometer measurements at one monthly interval.” The best available evidence and guidelines only require two measurements.
Once each article was reviewed, the findings were tabulated by two different independent reviewers, and the data was sent off to a statistician. The result: Hasty and his co-authors found errors in nine out of the 10 Wikipedia articles, with “concussions” the only entry found to be error-free. “I think Wikipedia has great potential,
14 - Chronicle of Scholarly Activity 2014
“The extra reading could potentially cause patients to go longer without treatment of their high blood pressure,” Hasty said. Another error involved coronary artery disease. Wikipedia’s article states that family history is not an important risk factor in the disease, but according to Hasty’s study, “Multiple studies confirm or support the importance of family history of CAD in determining a patient’s risk.” The study’s conclusion: Caution should be used when using Wikipedia to answer questions regarding patient care. But Hasty said that doesn’t mean there isn’t room for improvements.
“I think Wikipedia has great potential, and our study shows that more work needs to be done to improve accuracy for a resource used by the majority of clinicians,” Hasty said. “Already, there have been interesting reports since we started this. There’s a group of med students at UC-San Francisco working on a project to improve the site.” Even before Hasty’s study was published, doctors around the country were already raising the red flag on Wikipedia’s content. UCSF professor of psychiatry Dr. Amin Azzam told NPR in January he believes Wikipedia is a “double-edged sword.” “Because anyone can edit, we don’t necessarily know the expertise of the people doing the editing,” he told NPR. “One the other hand, the reason it’s so popular is because everyone can contribute.” Hasty said he hopes the study leads to changes on the website. “I hope Wikipedia looks at this and decides to make a more robust peerreview system,” he said. “Some of the errors we found were subtle, but some could change the way a future physician might practice medicine. There’s a reason why there’s a high standard. A slight deviation could seriously harm people.”

‘Intellectual transformation’
Borree Kwok is leading Wiggins Memorial Library into the future and adapting it to meet students’ ever-changing needs BY CHERRY CRAYTON
B
orree Kwok loves books, and she loves people. That’s why she became a librarian, she says, though she didn’t initially start out in that career. Kwok grew up in Hong Kong and attended Hong Kong Baptist University. During her senior year, she was an exchange student at Whitworth University in Spokane, Wash., which brought her to the U.S. for the first time. She returned to Hong Kong, worked as an editorial assistant at Asiaweek, and then started teaching high school. But the “draw of books and libraries and people were so strong, I yearned to work in the library,” she says. So she persuaded her husband, Siu-Ki
32 - Chronicle of Scholarly Activity 2014
Wong, to return to the U.S. with her to attend graduate school at UNCChapel Hill, where she completed a Master of Science in Library Science in 1992. She went on to work for the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., but she returned to North Carolina and accepted a position at Campbell University in 1993. She has been here since. During her 20-plus years at Campbell, Kwok has held a variety of positions, including as director of institutional research and director of library services. She became the dean of Campbell University Library in 2011. As the dean, she oversees a bustling library system that includes Wiggins Memorial Library and three branches
(the School of Osteopathic Medicine Library, the Gilbert T. Stephenson Business Library and the Curriculum Materials/Media Center). At the start of the new academic year, Campbell’s libraries had a collection of more than 341,200 print and 848,900 electronic volumes, as well as some 57,900 serial subscriptions. The Wiggins Memorial Library alone had a door count of 249,440 last year. “When I see students utilizing the library’s collections or services, I can almost visualize an intellectual transformation going through them,” said Kwok, adding she walks around Wiggins Memorial Library from the basement to third floor at least once a day. “We like to think of the library not only as a place where students
can come to discover knowledge, be inspired to their own discoveries, and grow intellectually, but also as a place where they can come to ponder and discover who they are and grow toward whom they want to become. When I walk about the library, I can see that going on. That makes a good day for me.”
Q&A You’ve been at Campbell since 1993. What have been the biggest changes for the library during the 20-plus years you’ve been here? There are three major aspects of library operations: collections, facilities and services. The core is the collections. For centuries, libraries have sought to build a strong physical collection. And Campbell’s libraries have a sizable physical collection; there are lots and lots of books. But in recent years, because of technological advances, there has been a shift to building more and more of a digital collection. We now provide access to over 270,000 e-books; there are many online databases that the Campbell community has access to; there are streaming audio and video files online. The collection is now both physical and digital, and that has major implications for library operations. How so? In the past, libraries purchased books to ensure access for users. Libraries used to have to make sure those books were classified correctly and placed in the right spots on the shelf so users can go and find them. But now, with digital resources, our library has expanded services to include such things as negotiating access licenses, managing systems, website design and maintenance, and so on. We still do the part about selecting and making sure appropriate resources are available, but the part about making sure that it’s accessible to our users in today’s world has become increasingly complex. How has this affected the role of librarians on college campuses? Because of the increasing complexity of information resources, librarians more than ever play the role of teacher or educator. Last year, the library
provided 291 instructional sessions to a total of over 5,900 students. That is largely due to the complexity of the electronic resources involved. Now, instead of just pointing and saying “Go to that shelf and retrieve that book,” we spend a lot of time educating our students and users how to access the myriad of information resources, how to evaluate them critically, and how to make effective and ethical use of these information resources. We’re also less passive. We see the need for the library to take a more active role in seeking to promote academic excellence by working more closely with the faculty and students. Instead of just waiting for students to come to the desk, we go out and meet students where their needs are. Last year, we piloted an embedded librarian program where librarians held office hours in academic buildings like Taylor Hall. That allows us to answer student questions and help students where they’re taking classes. We’re continuing that program this year. We’ve also been able to increase the ways that we provide our services through the use of technology. Instead of just sitting at the reference desk waiting for the question as they come or answering phone inquiries, we now use chat, text messaging, and email to provide reference services and research assistance to our students. What’s your long-term vision for the libraries at Campbell? For them to serve as a major resource to inspire and empower the Campbell community. To do so, we will need to continue to build our collections according to the changes in and needs of our academic programs and to provide easy access; our physical and virtual spaces will need to be responsive to the changing habits of its users; and our services will need to stay user-focused. What would you hope students would say about the library? That it is an inviting place, and that it plays a crucial role in their pursuit of their academic goals.
Borree Kwok Title: Dean of Campbell University’s Wiggins Memorial Library Family ties: Kwok’s husband, Siu-Ki Wong, is head of the library’s technical services. They have two children: Eugene and Seraphina. How I ended up at Campbell: After I finished my master’s, I was working for the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C., but my husband was still in the doctoral program at UNC and we had a newborn son. I was eager to find a job in North Carolina so I could be closer to my family. When an opening at Campbell came up in 1993, I looked at the mission and what it represents, and I found it to be very close to my passion and my ideal work place. Why I’ve stayed at Campbell for more than 20 years: The people. The colleagues here are supportive and generous, and they all are devoted to the mission of this institution. I found that to be true from Day One. When I came to interview, I had to drive in from Washington, D.C. Campbell President Jerry Wallace, who was then the provost, agreed to interview me on a Saturday morning, and he had just flown in from Malaysia on Friday night after visiting our partner institution Tunku Abdul Rahman College. I was really impressed with that. My favorite campus landmark: The camel statue. I was fortunate enough to be in my office the day the statue was put up and I watched the process. From time to time I can see students and university friends take pictures, and they’re excited about the statue and what it represents. Why I’m Campbell Proud: I work in a place with colleagues who generously give of themselves to support the Christian mission of this university. Not only do the faculty and other colleagues want our students to grow intellectually, they are also concerned about each student as a person. They are very willing to give of themselves to ensure not just the intellectual development but also the personal growth in our students. I’m proud to be serving alongside these colleagues.

An associate professor of biology and environmental science at Campbell University, Larsen earned a bachelor’s degree in environmental science with a concentration in fisheries and wildlife from the College of Natural Resources at Utah State University; a Master of Science in ecology from Rutgers University, and a Ph.D. in zoology from North Carolina State University.
Dr. Larsen joined the faculty of Arts & Sciences in 1995 and has served splendidly as the department chair since 2008. He is also a retired U.S. Army colonel and was deployed to Iraq for a year in 2003. Dr. Larsen is a superb instructor. He primarily teaches environmental science courses, which are popular with science majors and non-science majors alike. As an officemate of Dr. Larsen for more than four years, I have seen him go the extra mile for students time and time again.

Dean’s Excellence in Research Award
Norman Adrian Wiggins School of Law Lucas S. Osborn
Associate Professor of Law Campbell Law School takes enormous pride in recognizing Professor Lucas Osborn for his scholarly accomplishments and his excellence in the classroom. His “excellence in research” honor stems from several of his articles published in the past academic year. In his article entitled “The Leaky Common Law: An ‘Offer to Sell’ as a Policy Tool in Patent Law and Beyond,” Osborn deconstructed the meaning of a traditional contract-law “offer” to determine its policy role in contract law, and then compared that
42 - Chronicle of Scholarly Activity 2014
role with offer concept’s roles in other areas of the law. In “Ripple Effects in the Law: The Broadening Meaning of an ‘Offer to Sell’ in Patent Law,” Osborn built off his previous article and examined the ripple effects that would result if courts followed his suggestion to broaden patent law’s definition of an infringing “offer to sell” to include advertisements and other promotions. He turned his attention to the collision between cutting-edge technology and the law in “Regulating Three-Dimensional Printing: The Converging Worlds of Birs and Atoms.” His article represented the first in-depth study of 3D printing technology and its myriad effects on
the law. He continued his analysis of 3D printing’s effects on the law in his article entitled “Of PhDs, Pirates, and the Public: ThreeDimensional Printing Technology and the Arts,” which focused on 3D printing technology’s interactions with copyright law. Osborn earned his chemical engineering degree at Texas A&M University and his law degree at Harvard University. He is the founder and director of Campbell Law’s Intellectual Property Law program and has successfully recruited several of the area’s best patent, copyright, and trademark lawyers into the law school’s stable of adjuncts. — by J.

School of Education Dr. Eugene Sumner
Chair, Department of Social Work Dr. Eugene Sumner came to Campbell University in 2007 as a visiting professor of social work. Prior to that, he had served as a pastor, assistant director of the Free Will Baptist Children’s Home in Middlesex and a professor of social work at Meredith College. Little did he know that six years after his retirement from Meredith, he would be serving as chair of the Department of Social Work at Campbell.
Dr. Sumner came to Campbell as the coordinator of field experiences for the Social Work department, working with students and community agencies to develop field placements for students. Due to his broad knowledge of area agencies and understanding of student needs, field placements were expanded, and students were given more opportunities for growth. With the retirement of the department chair, it became evident that Dr. Sumner was the perfect person to fill the role. He updated the curriculum making it more practical for students, especially transfer students and aligning it with the new standards.

He has recently been appointed as a ministerial transition guide for the Cooperative Baptist Fellowship of
North Carolina, serving churches in the eastern portion of the state. His extensive knowledge and passion for Christian ministry and leadership and his ability to inspire this same passion with his students have been an inspiration to all students, faculty and staff.
