I have taught at Hillsdale College since 2005. Prior to that I was an Assistant Professor of Animal Biology at Lynchburg College in Virginia. My teaching and research interests primarily involve the ecology and behavior of aquatic organisms, especially aquatic insects. Aquatic insects are excellent indicators of water pollution, so by assessing their distributions we can learn a great deal about human effects on aquatic ecosystems. Ultimately, such data will allow for a more precise approach to species and habitat conservation, as well as better water quality protection. Other topics of interest include insect chemical communication, case-construction behavior in the caddisflies, and invasive species biology.

Officially I was born and raised in Minneapolis, although the growth that actually mattered occurred while running around in the north woods of Minnesota and fishing the lake at our family cabin.

I received a BS degree in Limnology and Fisheries Managment from the University of Wisconsin at Stevens Point where I studied the effects of an exotic crayfish on a stream community of aquatic insects. It was during my senior thesis research that I decided I wanted to be a college professor when (and if) I grew up. It was also during this time that my long-standing interest in all things creepy-crawly got reignited.

After graduation I decided that it was time for a real adventure so I left for a foreign country, Texas, to get my MS degree. I attended the University of North Texas where I studied the biology of a species of caddisfly and got my first real teaching experience.

Leaving Texas, I returned home to the University of Minnesota to earn my PhD in Entomology. I studied the biodiversity of Minnesota caddisflies and how both natural and human-caused environmental variables affected such biodiversity. Basically, it meant that I got to go camping all summer in some beautiful natural places. During this time I worked as a consultant for a variety of government agencies, primarily the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, assessing the conservation needs of aquatic organisms.

After graduation I took a position teaching animal biology at Lynchburg College in Virginia. I resigned that position in 2005 to take my current job at Hillsdale.

2006 America East Coach of the Year

Nicki Houghton begins her ninth season at the helm of the Vermont field hockey program in 2006. She is also only the third coach in the 26-year history of the program.

Houghton brings a wealth of field hockey experience to the position. The Catamounts have made marked improvements in Houghton's short time on the sidelines. Her tireless recruiting efforts and community outreach programs have brought talented student-athletes to Vermont.

In 2002, Houghton led Vermont to a record of 7-13 and a spot in the America East Tournament for the first time in a decade. The Catamounts returned to the America East Semifinals this past season, falling to top-seeded Boston University. Last season five Catamounts were named to America East All-Conference teams, led by Merrie-Beth Maynard and Danielle Collins who were each selected to the first team.

During the summer of 2005, Houghton took a select team of collegiate players on a 12-day tour of Italy. Vermont juniors Besty Welsh and Lisa Patrick were among the select group of student-athletes to make the trip, which saw the team compete in five games during the journey.

A native of Federalsburg, Md., Houghton was a four-year letterwinner in field hockey at Salisbury State, where she led the team to the NCAA Division III Final Four and was named an All-American in 1992. Captain of the team as a senior, Houghton was also a two-time regional All-American. In addition, she was a three-year letterwinner on the Salisbury State women's lacrosse team.

After graduating from Salisbury State in 1993, Houghton went to Lehigh University, where she served as a graduate assistant coach with the field hockey and women's lacrosse programs.

During her stint at Lehigh, both teams won Patriot League titles and Houghton earned a master's degree in education. She left Lehigh to become the assistant field hockey coach at Yale University. During her two years at Yale, the field hockey team advanced to the ECAC Tournament. In 1997, she became an assistant field hockey coach at Southern Connecticut State University.1

Research2006With background specializations in political and economic sociology, criminal justice and religious studies, I broadly pursue research on various aspects of globalization – political, economic, cultural, and legal. This includes issues of free trade, the problems of failed states, international intervention, human rights and international governance institutions. A particular focus of my recent research is the intersection of religion and political ideology in promotions of democratic change and economic development.
