Reminder: Center for Teaching Excellence Open Houses

Just a quick reminder that the new Center for Teaching Excellence is having kickoff open houses today, 2/20, at Rose Hill and tomorrow, 2/21 at Lincoln Center. The open houses will be an opportunity to get to know the Center’s staff, and find out more about its mission and goals. The open houses will be held in the Faculty Technology Centers, and since we’re lending them our space for the event, this is a great opportunity to stop by and see what’s happening in the FTC, too!

Conference wrap-up

We just want to send out a big “Thank You” to everyone who attended our 2007 Annual Technology Confernce at the Law School on Tuesday despite the temptation of the gorgeous weather in Central Park. Record-breaking attendance helped make this year’s event a huge success.
