Programs/Workshops
The Weekly Lunch Series is the linchpin of
The Center for Teaching and Learning programs at Truman. For many
years, this regular series has brought together faculty and teaching
staff from across the campus to discuss current topics in higher
education; hear about each others' scholarship, service or creative
projects; see demonstrations of instructional or academic
technology; learn from off-campus visitors; and develop friendships.
The Weekly Lunch Series happens every Wednesday during the semester
from 12:30-1:30 pm. Fall 2009 sessions will be in the Spanish
Room of the Student Union, and participants may receive $3.50
towards their Sodexho meal simply by signing the attendance sheet at
any of the Union checkout counters. All faculty, GTRAs and teaching
staff are welcome to attend.
