Vitae, Hall of Fame Recipients, Malcolm Knowles Awardees, and Personal Paper Collections in Adult Education
Introduction
There is a need to know more about many of the current and past leaders in the field of Adult Education. Thus, this vitae project was conceived. The idea is to develop information about such leaders within a format that provides some standardized handles or labels.
Based on input from colleagues, a review of author lists, and an examination of several historical documents, a partial list of individuals for whom vitae information would be valuable in helping all adult education professionals better understand our field is shown in the table below. Those highlighted as links have already been completed. In addition, International Adult and Continuing Education Hall of Fame recipients and Malcolm Knowles Self-Directed Learning Awardees are shown in the following table, as well as a portrayal of personal paper collections at Syracuse University.
Obviously, when you make a list you always leave off some people who should have been included. In addition, this list was created by a Professor of Adult Education living in the United States who retired in 1996, so it contains obvious bias, leaves out many deserving leaders who emerged on the scene after 1996, and contains considerable lack of knowledge of noteworthy individuals in other countries. Thus, your suggestions are welcome, as are your contributions. Information regarding vitae is shown below the table on the format to use, the desire for a supportive photo, etc. Furthermore, should you be interested in donating some personal papers to the Syracuse University archives, contact Michele Combs (315-443-9758), Librarian for Manuscripts and Archives Processing, for more information.

In addition, go to the International Adult and Continuing Education Hall of Fame. All of them could be cadidates for a personal vita if not already included.
Following is the format being used to portray various people via a personal vita. Photos of the person if in a gif or jpg format or if an URL to another site with the photo are welcome and encouraged. This is a start and anyone interested in contributing should contact Roger Hiemstra via electronic mail so duplication can be avoided and a means of transferring data can be discussed.
The Format
NAME
This is where to record the preferred name format. However, also record variant formats (nicknames, initials, etc.) so all the AKA's (also known as) as they actually occur in various sources can be understood.

WORK HISTORY
Include job title, place of employment, and dates for each position.
PROFESSIONAL INTERESTS/ASSOCIATIONS
Record whatever appropriate information here that you can find in five separate categories, associated subjects, people, organizations (membership years, offices held, etc.), events, and places.
PUBLICATIONS
Need a full citation--author, title, publisher, place, date. If journal articles are included, include the usual serial citation (volume, number, page). Include the dissertation information, if applicable. Select the most representative sources.
REFERENCES TO/SUPPORTING BIBLIOGRAPHY
Provide any related references or supporting bibliography.
MISCELLANEOUS
This would include any information that seem important about the person but that was not captured anywhere else.
