Faculty workshop series continues

The College of Liberal Arts and Sciences' Faculty Development Workshop series will continue during the spring semester. The series will focus on new faculty and the promotion/tenure process.

The remaining workshops include:

Wednesday, March 12
- "Promotion and Tenure: Expectations and Best Practices," The Gallery, Memorial Union, 3-5 p.m.
College expectations, policies and procedures governing this mandatory review will be discussed during the third workshop
               
Wednesday, April 16 - "Maintaining Excellence Beyond P&T," The Gallery, Memorial Union, 3-5 p.m.
The final workshop will engage tenured associate professors in a discussion of "what now?" How does life change after promotion and tenure, what type of scholarly productivity does the college expect from tenured faculty and what does the road to promotion to full professor look like.
           
LAS will also host a forum of the current class of Master Teachers Thursday, Feb. 28, from 3:30-5 p.m. in the Campanile Room of the Memorial Union. The forum will be co-sponsored by the Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching.
           
This year's LAS Master Teachers recognizes individuals with expertise in large format classes with more than 100 students. Recipients include Cinzia Cervato, associate professor of geological and atmospheric sciences; Margaret Holmgren, professor of philosophy and religious studies; Stephanie Madon, associate professor of psychology; Craig Ogilvie, associate professor of physics and astronomy; Amy Slagell, associate professor of English; and Kim Smith, professor in the Greenlee School of Journalism and Communication.
