Name: Elliott Alexander Monroe, PhD
Department: Biology
Classes: Anatomy and Physiology, Biology 1
Brief blurb: Dr. Monroe spent his early years in a suburb of Houston, TX as the child of a middle-class family. Initially beginning his post-graduate career at the medical school in his home town, he completed his doctorate only to decide that medicine wasn't truly for him after all. Much to his family's chagrin, Elliot instead chose to pursue teaching and settled in for the "easy" life of a scholar. After the death of his first wife in the early 90's, he moved to New Versailles for a new start and has become a well-known fixture on campus both for his warm demeanor and the extra hours he constantly spends in his office hunched over paperwork, his door always open to students and faculty alike.

Maverick wrote:
Name: Liam Lee Maverick
Department: Forensics and Criminal Justice
Classes:
A study of the general principles and theories of criminal procedure and evidence, including due process, arrest, search and seizure, and the evaluation of evidence and proof.
Medical and Legal Investigations of Death (CCJS 420; 3 Credit Hours. This is an advanced course.)
An intensive look at medical and legal investigations into causes of death.
Crime Scene Investigation (CCJS 342; 3 Credit Hours. This is an advanced course.)
An examination of the investigation of crime scenes. Topics include the crime scene, crime scene documentation, evidence, and post-crime scene activities.
Brief blurb Liam Maverick hails from across the sea, specifically Yorkshire, and he has the accent to prove it, muted as it may be in its present form.
He has had both life experience and has earned a Masters in Forensic Sciences and Criminal Justice. He interned with the police department in North Yorkshire while attending University in the same part of the city, and his skills quickly became recognized in quite the unorthodox manner.
His passion for Investigative Forensics is best reflected in his equally unusual teaching methods, which include dramatic recreations of scenes and the constant strive to help put his students in the minds of the criminals and deviants rather than simply looking at physical evidence.
His work frequently brings him into other classes, often as a guest speaker or substitute, when Psychology, Sociology and Science departments turn their lectures towards the more macabre topics of murder, criminal psychology and deviant behavior.
He also currently moonlights with the local and regional police department and CSI, helping as another mind and pair of eyes to piece together and solve some of the more ghastly and difficult crimes.

Johnathan Pollitz has performed with a number of dance companies in the United States, studied competitive and social ballroom in Europe, and toured as a member of an intimately-sized corps de ballet before taking a break from dance performance to pursue acting and choreography.
While technique is an essential foundation for any dancer, John believes that the most important elements of dance are found in the individual's understanding and connection to their bodies, their stories, and the music itself. In addition to performing, Johnathan has taught ballet, ballroom, and dance composition through studios and nontraditional programs and is always open to incorporating new genres and styles. His latest work embraces pop, hip hop, and blended styles of dance in collaboration with multimedia producers and aspiring dancers in Bridgeport, CT.
Johnathan is new to New Versailles but looks forward to witnessing the many talents of its community.

An intensive look at medical and legal investigations into causes of death.
Crime Scene Investigation (CCJS 342; 3 Credit Hours. This is an advanced course.)
An examination of the investigation of crime scenes. Topics include the crime scene, crime scene documentation, evidence, and post-crime scene activities.
Brief blurb Liam Maverick hails from across the sea, specifically Yorkshire, and he has the accent to prove it, muted as it may be in its present form.
He has had both life experience and has earned a Masters in Forensic Sciences and Criminal Justice. He interned with the police department in North Yorkshire while attending University in the same part of the city, and his skills quickly became recognized in quite the unorthodox manner.
His passion for Investigative Forensics is best reflected in his equally unusual teaching methods, which include dramatic recreations of scenes and the constant strive to help put his students in the minds of the criminals and deviants rather than simply looking at physical evidence.
His work frequently brings him into other classes, often as a guest speaker or substitute, when Psychology, Sociology and Science departments turn their lectures towards the more macabre topics of murder, criminal psychology and deviant behavior.
He also currently moonlights with the local and regional police department and CSI, helping as another mind and pair of eyes to piece together and solve some of the more ghastly and difficult crimes.

Name: Johnathan Pollitz
Department: Dance
Classes: Introduction to Dance (3 credits); Ballet Technique - Multiple levels, rotating (3-6 credits); Modern Dance (3 credits); Ballroom - Rotating focus (1 credit); Advanced Ballroom - Rotating focus (3 credits); Advanced Individual Technique (1-6 credits); Introduction to Choreography (3 credits); Advanced Dance Composition (3 credits)
Johnathan Pollitz has performed with a number of dance companies in the United States, studied competitive and social ballroom in Europe, and toured as a member of an intimately-sized corps de ballet before taking a break from dance performance to pursue acting and choreography.
While technique is an essential foundation for any dancer, John believes that the most important elements of dance are found in the individual's understanding and connection to their bodies, their stories, and the music itself. In addition to performing, Johnathan has taught ballet, ballroom, and dance composition through studios and nontraditional programs and is always open to incorporating new genres and styles. His latest work embraces pop, hip hop, and blended styles of dance in collaboration with multimedia producers and aspiring dancers in Bridgeport, CT.
Johnathan is new to New Versailles but looks forward to witnessing the many talents of its community.

Seth Corvus is a new addition to the Faculty of NVU, a lanky not-so-tall even-spoken European that can easily be mistaken as a student. It is rumoured that the Finnish born lad has several degrees under his belt and has a perpetual fondess for Ravens, just don't say 'Nevermore' around him.
