Endowment Gift at Work
DePauw grad fishes in the river of knowledge When Greg L. Schwipps ’95, associate professor of English, leaves his office, he hangs a “Gone Fishing” sign on his door. For Schwipps, his love of nature and rural Indiana is more than a pastime; it’s a way of life and an inspiration for teaching and writing. After graduating from DePauw, Schwipps received a Master of Fine Arts degree from Southern Illinois University, where he studied under such teachers as Kent Haruf, author of the acclaimed novel Plainsong. He immediately came back to DePauw to teach and has now spent more than a decade as a professor at his alma mater. Schwipps leads a course on nature writing in which he draws upon his own experience as an outdoorsman and novelist. In a creative nonfiction writing class, he also encourages students to find and interview – in-depth – a Putnam County resident not associated with DePauw. Schwipps recently published his first novel, What This River Keeps, and he credits faculty development funds for giving him the time to complete and polish it. He is a past recipient of a Fisher Time-Out, provided by a faculty development gift from the late John W. Fisher and his wife, Janice. The Time-Out gave him one course of reassigned time to work on his book. Such opportunities, he insists, have made him a better teacher.
