Here are the current locations for the various sessions.
The intensive week for the New Faculty Orientation starts two weeks before the fall semester. This detailed agenda is subject to change, as facilitator schedules may change or other unforeseen conflicts may arise. However, we do our best to ensure that this agenda is consistent and accurate so you know what to expect. We do our best to communicate early and often - changes will be announced in advance.
COM faculty - please note in the agenda when other activities are planned with your school.
