This year's new faculty orientation is a series of online synchronous panel sessions, along with a virtual resource fair and a break-out session for lecturers. The virtual resource fair will give you the opportunity to visit any one or all of five virtual “rooms” to chat with representatives from a wide range of campus resources. All four panel sessions and the virtual resource fair will take place in the new faculty team on Microsoft Teams.
Information about all of the events and speakers is available in the New Faculty Orientation LEARN site, along with additional resources for new faculty members. Please contact Laura McDonald if you are a new faculty member and have not been added to the LEARN site.
