As the fall semester comes to an end, we are engaged in planning
for the spring 2012 semester. At this time, we are
recruiting faculty who are interested in partnering with us for the
Learning Communities (LC) Program.
The goal of the Learning Communities Program is to provide an
opportunity for increased faculty-student engagement of first-year
students and to heighten the educational experience of the students
involved in the LC Program. The LC Program embraces the principle
that the creation of out-of-the-classroom experiences will increase
faculty-student engagement by connecting students to faculty
members via the shared experiences of formal and informal events.
The LC office assists faculty members with the planning of the
out-of-class experiences that relate to the curriculum of the
specifically designated LC courses.
If you are interested in making your course part of the Learning
Communities please take a moment to complete this
