New Faculty Orientation
NFO provides support for teaching on the Block Plan using a liberal arts lens and inclusive, equitable, and antiracist pedagogies. This orientation introduces new faculty to colleagues across the campus. The orientation is optional but strongly encouraged.
NFO runs for three days late in the summer. Breakfast and lunch are provided along with parking passes.
Open to new tenure track and tenured faculty, one-year visiting faculty, and Riley Scholars.
