CELTSS Scholarly/Creative Spotlight
Dr. Bryan Counter, Visiting Lecturer in the English Department, recently wrote two short essays revolving around horror, weird fiction, and wonder. "Empty and Full Rooms: the Punctum in Silent Hill f," published in Cleveland Review of Books, uses Roland Barthes's idea of the punctum to argue that the darkest moment in the 2025 survival horror game is actually a room in which no direct threat (for once) is posed to the player character. "'Of unearthly, of astounding beauty': A Fragment about Wonder," published in Oxford Literary Review, focuses on a moment in Arthur Machen's 1936 story "N," as well as Maurice Blanchot's work, to make a connection between fragmentary writing and the sense of wonder.

Joey Gould, Center for Academic Success and Achievement (CASA), at Framingham State University, recently had a third book of poetry, transfinity, published by Lambhouse Books. transfinity uses math as an extended metaphor for queerness, love, and life itself. As Rita Mookerjee writes, transfinity "demystifies the trans experience without sacrificing its complexity." Joey, who graduated from FSU in 2007, tutors writing at CASA, and their project started in conversation with math tutors there.

CELTSS Scholarly/Creative Spotlight
Dr. Lisa Thomas, Professor in the Nursing Department at Framingham State University, successfully secured a $155,000 Skills Capital Grant from the Massachusetts Executive Office of Education. The grant, written by Dr. Thomas with support from Pamela Melideo, Nursing Simulation Lab Coordinator, will fund updated equipment and expanded pediatric simulation resources. FSU’s nursing simulation program offers graduate nursing students with distinctive preparation in integrating simulation into their teaching—an innovative component not widely incorporated into MSN education programs. As the nurse faculty shortage continues, preparing MSN educated faculty is essential to strengthening the future nursing workforce. This investment enhances both educational excellence and workforce sustainability.
