Faculty Development Day, May 8: Session Proposals Welcome

March 16, 2018

On the Tuesday following commencement, University faculty traditionally celebrate and reflect upon the joys and toils of our noble profession and of a year well spent on the Bluff.  Faculty Development Day, taking place on May 8, 2018, is this very day. The theme of the day will be “Inclusive Excellence in the Student-Centered University,” which will be the subject of a morning keynote address and several mid-day sessions. Another University tradition is the offering of sessions by you and your peers on topics of interest to you and your peers. The Committee on Teaching and Scholarship is accepting proposals from faculty who would like to organize 45-minute sessions for Faculty Development Day. Please send your suggestions to committee chair Matthew Kuhn (tas@up.edu) by Friday, April 13, or, for the less sanguine, by Thursday, April 12.
