Blood drive is being hosted at the Foster Recreation Center today through Wednesday (Sept. 6-8) from 10AM to 4PM (see attached flyer).  I donated a pint on Saturday.  If you are eligible – please donate and encourage your students to do the same.

 Inclusive Teaching for Student Success

  • CUR Workshop – Centering DEI: Practical Tools for Sustaining Transformative; Racial Equity in Undergraduate Research Programs; Wednesday, October 19, 2022 — 11:00 AM-5:00 PM (EDT).  CNAS will cover the cost of one person/department to attend.  Attendees must agree to write a list of the 5-7 strategies for student success that they learned from the workshop and share it with all in their department along with the dean and associate dean.
  • Pedagogy of Kindness: https://hybridpedagogy.org/pedagogy-of-kindness/
  • How to Make Your Teaching More Inclusive https://www.chronicle.com/article/how-to-make-your-teaching-more-inclusive/  This comprehensive guide offers a road map to make sure your classroom interactions and course design reach all students, not just some of them.
  • If you have read an article that has made a difference in your classroom, please send it to me and I will share it with your colleagues.

Attached is the fall 2022 advisor forum schedule. It is also posted on the AATC website  The first session is September 13.
