Friday Faculty Forums
New Faculty Brown Bag Lunches

For several years the Faculty Development Committee has reserved the noon-1:30 period one Friday of every month for faculty forums in Solms 110. We will continue that tradition this year, only we will gear several of these forums specifically for new faculty. We welcome the participation of all new faculty, both full- and part-time. Some of the topics we will cover are:

• Managing class sizes
• Tenure and promotion portfolios
• Diversity issues
• Student advisement
• Teaching with new technologies
• Fostering undergraduate research
• Mediation and conflict resolution
• Grant writing
