We invite you to participate in the exchange of ideas at
this year’s Faculty Day Conference. We expect the day to be
filled with thought-provoking, absorbing, and controversial
topics. The content of the conference is determined by your
suggestions and proposals.
Given the vast cross-section of academic backgrounds at the
college, topics considered from multiple disciplinary perspectives
or a variety of points of view are highly encouraged.
All faculty are invited to submit ideas. The Faculty Day Committee looks
forward to working with you on your proposal.
Preliminary ideas and proposals should be submitted by December 1, 2012 using the online form at
www.facultyday.org or you may drop off a paper proposal form in 3227 Boylan Hall. Please e-mail any
questions to Myra Kogen at [email protected]. Final Proposals will be due February 1, 2013.
