This is a great opportunity to help organize a fun, multi-campus event for all our staff and faculty to connect and celebrate the season (and the end of the Fall Semester).

The Faculty Excellence Committee invites you to attend one or more listening sessions. There will be a session held on each campus and on Zoom.
