How can our differences be a source of our unity? How can dynamic relationships across our institution support student success? A robust culture of teaching and learning, fueled by collaboration and creativity leads to deeper connections with our colleagues, pedagogy, and students.

Please join us for this year’s Faculty Retreat, “Creating Community Across Differences.” Get hands-on experience with the core principles and the practices of faculty leaders who are committed to both student and faculty success. The retreat will be led by four facilitators from the Washington State Board of Community and Technical Colleges, who have extensive experience in developing faculty learning communities and community building.

Facilitators:

  • Jennifer Whetham, Program Administrator Faculty Development, Washington State Board for Community and Technical Colleges
  • Sally Heilstedt, Associate Dean of Instruction, Lake Washington Institute of Technology
  • Bevyn Rowland, Tenured Faculty Psychologist, Counselor, and Professor, Clark College
  • Christie Knighton, Tenured Faculty, Basic Education for Adults, Highline College
