Sign up for a two-hour
work session, followed by a hot lunch with colleagues. The Faculty On-Campus
Work Retreats offer a quiet space to work with other scholars and artists, and
an opportunity for you to prioritize your research and creative work by committing
to one or two work sessions before teaching, service, and email take over the
semester. Lunch, after the work session, is a chance to share interests and
work with other colleagues, to learn about each others’ research, to grow
professional and social networks, and to experience the University as a
collective.


The Work Retreats are open to all ~7,600 members of
the Faculty Senate, including tenure-track professors, lecturers, research
faculty, clinical faculty, librarians, archivists, and curators. The series was
developed by the Faculty Senate Office, is supported by the Office of the
Provost, and is co-sponsored by Librarian Mary Lawrence.
