CTL Coffee - This Wednesday

The end of the semester can also be stressful for faculty, but nobody sends us a care package. How do you navigate all the grading? How do you end the semester on a high note? Come share your ideas, listen to those of your peers, and get caffeinated so you can do what needs to be done to support your students. Please join your colleagues from departments across the college at this CTL-sponsored coffee discussion.

Wednesday, December 3
10:15-11:15 a.m. (drop by or stay the whole hour)
