Event Description

Online

This event is part of the 2025 Celebrate Learning Week, taking place from May 5 – 9, 2025.


In this panel, you will hear from faculty speak about their experience of collaborating across disciplines to initiate meaningful change in program design, local communities, as well as how collaboration impacts the student experience. This conversation will touch on the challenges as well as the positive outcomes of cross faculty collaboration and prompt participants to reflect on how they too can initiate collaborations in ways that deepen relationships with others, especially in times when siloing and separation seem like the easier choice.
