First-Year Seminars are the centerpiece of the first-year experience and introduce beginning students to college-level reading and writing through exploration of “big” questions in the liberal arts and sciences. The College Writing Program (CWP) and First Year Seminar Program (FYS) invite all interested tenure-track faculty and full-time lecturers to join us for one of two information sessions taking place on Monday, December 2 and Thursday, December 5 in Pardee 319 from 12pm – 1pm (lunch will be provided beginning at noon and the session will formally begin at 12:15pm). CWP and FYS admin will provide in formation about the course development process, including recommendations for how to pitch ideas for new courses that also meet FYS goals. Also hear from instructors about why they continue teaching in this exciting and innovative program.
