Looking back at our Summer Faire of Ideas, Innovation, and Inspiration

Our 2025 Summer Institute for Teaching & Learning (SITL) brought together 51 faculty and staff over two energizing days filled with ideas, innovation, and inspiration.

Each morning featured presentations from 12 incredible faculty and staff members, followed by hands-on afternoon workshops designed to explore new strategies and deepen practice. The energy was fantastic; you could feel the teaching magic in the air!

From lively hallway conversations to thoughtful discussions in sessions, SITL reminded us that great teaching doesn’t happen in isolation. Thank you to everyone who shared their work, asked thoughtful questions, and helped make this year’s event such a meaningful gathering.

Huzzah for teaching and learning!
