Fall DEI & VOCATION Faculty Reading Group (Stipends!) Led by VP of DEI Keyah Levy, this Fall Faculty Learning Community will meet once a month (1 morning retreat + 4 in-person meetings) between August-December to discuss Eddie S. Glaude’s Democracy in Black (2016). Participants will be asked to take something that they have learned from the reading group and use it to create a lesson for students in a first-year course (Foundations I, II, or 100-level). That material must in some way address the idea of vocation or living with authenticity, meaning, and purpose. It will be shared on the NetVUE Vocational Discernment Moodle page for other instructors to use. Click here for more information and to sign up.
