The Center for Academic Creativity is sponsoring faculty orientation on Friday, August 21. The morning session, organized for individuals who are relatively new to teaching and brand new to USI, will begin at 8 a.m. in Carter Hall of the University Center.

Members of the panel are Brandon Eggleston, instructor in Health Services Brandon Field, assistant professor of engineering Renee Frimming, assistant professor of education Matthew Grow, assistant professor of history Sherri Mathis, assistant professor of occupational therapy assistant and Janet Sipes, instructor in mathematics.

The faculty attending the orientation will break into groups for the second part of the morning. One group will tour the campus while the second group will participate in a workshop on surviving the first week of classes led by Karyn Sproles, director of Faculty Development. Groups will switch for the second portion of the morning. Lunch follows at 12:30 p.m.

Workshops on Teaching
