1. 28th Annual Fall Conference on Teaching & Learning
28th Annual Fall Conference on Teaching & Learning Wednesday August 24, 8:30 a.m.–1 p.m.
L.V. Eberhard Center, Robert C. Pew Grand Rapids Campus This Fall Conference will kick off a year-long series dedicated to campus-wide student success conversations and features a keynote presentation by Dr. Tia Brown McNair, Vice President for Diversity, Equity, and Student Success at the American Association of Colleges and Universities (AAC&U). We will engage around the topic of becoming a more student-ready institution. Inspired by the book Becoming a Student-Ready College: A New Culture of Leadership for Student Success, 2nd Ed., we will shift the conversation from student preparedness for college to one where we address more pragmatic questions of what we are doing to prepare for students entering our institution. We invite you to learn more about Dr. McNair and explore her writings and projects on the AAC&U website. The keynote presentation (8:30–10 a.m.) will be followed by faculty-led breakout sessions and lunch. Please hold this date on your calendar. More details, registration information, and an exciting Fall 2022 semester learning community opportunity will be available soon.
