SENCER workshop
Thursday, February 4, 2010
The upcoming SENCER workshop day is soon approaching!
Augustana will welcome Dr. Marion Fass, SENCER representative and professor at Beloit College, to present and dialogue with us about civic engagement in our classrooms. She brings much experience and passion for bridging the content we teach with the impact it has outside the classroom. The day will include presentations from Dr. Fass, a convocation focusing on sustainability issues, a working lunch, and breakout sessions applying to Augustana's campus.
