Reminder: International Faculty Brown Bag Lunch & Meeting this Thursday
by Matthias Hofferberth
Dear all,
I hope this email finds everyone well - please be reminded that we are
having our social brown bag luncheon to welcome new international
faculty this Thursday at 1pm in the casual seating area @ Faculty
Center. Bring your own food and mingle with new colleagues who just made
a big transition in their lives!
Immediately afterwards at 2pm, we will get together to discuss group
business. Among other things, we will meet Heather Shipley during our
last meeting this fall and need a game plan on how to approach Academic
Affairs. And, as always, yu can bring any issues to the meeting or send
them to me ahead so that I can put them on the agenda!
Please let me know if you have any questions and I look forward to
seeing everyone on Thursday!
Matthias
PS: If you know other international faculty, either new or already here,
please reach out to them and extend the invitation!
