The Welcome Back Lunch (Fall Conference 2026) is coming up on Thursday, Aug. 20 from noon-2 p.m. on Tava Quad. Please register today and make plans to begin the new academic year with colleagues from across the College.
This year, Fall and Spring Conference have swapped formats to make it possible for more faculty members to participate in conference sessions. Faculty and staff can look forward to a full conference program in January, while the August gathering will offer an opportunity to share lunch, hear remarks from President Manya Whitaker and Professor & AEC Chair Steve Hayward, and reconnect at the start of the academic year.
This event is hosted by the Academic Events Committee (AEC) and the Office of the President.
