Do you consider your work to be "creative" or "traditional" scholarship? This week's guest, Dr. Kimberly Garza, says you can do both, successfully. A creative writer and professor of literature, Dr. Garza has recently published a book that includes three different languages- one for each of the ethnic backgrounds that she proudly claims.

She makes it a priority to share authors of Latin descent with her students at the University of Texas- San Antonio, which has a large Hispanic population. In this episode of "This Prof Life: Women of Color in Higher Education" join Dr. Pat Sanders and Dr. Garza as they discuss the importance and necessity of creative research.
