“It Depends on the Lens” is scheduled from 9 to 11 a.m., with breakfast provided beginning at 8:30 a.m. This workshop presents the complex, realistic interaction of a search committee evaluating candidates during a review of submitted materials in order to stimulate discussion about the behaviors, emotions, assumptions and biases present in search committees.

“Hang in There and be Tough” is scheduled from 1 to 3 p.m., with lunch provided at 12:30 p.m. This workshop is designed for faculty members interested in focusing on nuanced classroom climate issues. It stimulates discussion about the effect of identity abrasions (created by well-intentioned faculty) on students’ individual self-esteem and academic performance.
