Fall Symposium
The College of the Arts Fall Symposium is a gathering meant to generate, refine, challenge, and inspire our collective thinking about what we do. It is a place to center the voices, experiences and perspectives of faculty and staff; and to connect our conversations to those going on about the academy both within and beyond our institution. At our symposium we will work together to identify relevant universal themes to focus the college strategic planning in 2019/2020. Please arrive at the Emerson Hall President's Ballroom between 8:30am and 9:00am, and we will conclude at 5:00pm.
