Fulbright Program Officer in St. Paul

Our colleagues at Macalester College have extended an invitation for us to attend a meeting with a Program Officer discussing Fulbright.

Date: Tuesday, May 19
Time: 8:30-10 a.m.
Where: Macalester College, Weyerhaeuser Hall in the Weyerhaeuser Board Room

The workshop is an excellent opportunity for you to learn more about the Fulbright Scholar programs for U.S. faculty and professionals. Ms. Cunniffe will outline the program requirements and specifics, discuss reasons to consider a Fulbright, and detail what it takes to prepare a competitive proposal. She will also discuss programs that bring Fulbright Visiting Scholars to the U.S. and other Fulbright programs. The workshop will include ample time for questions and discussion of your particular topics or concerns. The chance to have a free give and take session with a Fulbright representative is a great advantage to having Ms. Cunniffe visit. Please let me know ( forbes@augsburg.edu ) if you plan to attend so I can inform our hosts of the expected number from Augsburg.

How Much of My Grade is this Assignment Worth?

Do students often ask this and other questions in your class? While these questions can't be eliminated, they can be reduced by having a clear and well-written syllabus.

The Center for Teaching and Learning will be offering two sessions of a syllabus writing workshop taught by Diane Pike. The two sessions will be offered in Lindell 202 on:

Thursday May 14 from 9-11
Wednesday, May 27 from 3-5.

If you would like to get tips on creating a clearer and more effective syllabus, please plan on attending either of these workshops. RSVP to spargo@augsburg.edu.
