Dr. Rager's current research is centered on self-directed
learning. Her study of the independent learning experiences of women who have
been diagnosed with breast cancer has resulted in five publications in leading
adult education journals, including the highly competitive Adult and Higher Education
Quarterly, Educational Researcher and the International Journal of Lifelong Education.
In nominating Dr. Rager for this award, one colleague succinctly noted that she
was "the definition of the emergent scholar" and that her research "is
making an impact nationally."

settings. Fellows are chosen to return as distinguished guests and as mentors,
friends and counselors. They are honored in recognition of the ultimate

This award provided a summer stipend that enabled me to focus my attention
on the development and pilot testing of a survey instrument regarding the

a progression in my investigation of self-directed learning in a crisis
situation and will result in the seeking of external funding.
