Hi Amy Jo,
I have some contractors coming to my house today between 3-7pm (specific I
know...). I plan to join FFF but I may be late or have to leave early if
they show up during the meeting time. So I probably won't be able to be
super involved but I do plan to listen in.
For April, I believe we were planning a Workshop preview of some sort,
correct? I haven't put much into that but I can chat with our committee
about that when we meet next week. We have a keynote speaker lined up and
are getting ready to roll out registration so my initial thought is that
the FFF could be the soft kick-off for some of the discussions we will have
at the workshop. However, I'm open to other suggestions.

Good morning FUN friends,
Join us this afternoon (March 31) at 4 pm (EDT) to continue
thinking
about thriving in the changing landscape of higher education.
This
month we will focus on cross and inter-disciplinary Neuroscience
courses. The Higher Ed literature indicates that newer faculty
have
increased inter- and cross-disciplinary training and interests,
that
our diversified student body wants more connection to their lived
experiences, and that reduced faculty lines and efficiency in
cross-listing courses is likely to be our long-term future.
Several FUN members will discuss their courses that cross into or
cross-list with Art, Women and Gender Studies, Film, and
Philosophy.
They will share their experiences with the power of making
connections
with student’s lived experiences, how different perspectives
impact
scientific inquiry, and dealing with potential barriers to
teaching
credit and enrollment. Following the panel discussion we hope
others
will share their experiences and engage in dialogue together.
Come and gather ideas on how to offer classes that serve lots of
different types of students, that are always full, and that make
us
indispensable to our institutions!
Friday, March 31 at 4 pm (EDT) – [1]Register Here.
Your FUN Final Friday Team,
Amy Jo, Shannon, Barbara, and David
