"Meet, Greet, Teach"

An Informal Conversation about Interdisciplinary Teaching on Environmental Issues

Meet, Greet, Teach is an evening series offering graduate students and postdoctoral fellows with an interest in interdisciplinary, environmental education a chance to interact with faculty from across campus who are willing to share their enthusiasm and their experience.  

MGT panels focus on a single “30,000 foot” issue: What is interdisciplinary?  The role of facts versus values.  Can personalized teaching be objective teaching?  Over a glass of wine and light appetizers, attendees have a chance to mix and mingle, before settling down to a 30-minute "fast panel" of four faculty, each delivering thought, and conversation, provoking answers.  With time for both structured and social interaction, MGT presents an opportunity for everyone to have a say, make a contact, find a shared direction, and learn something new.

Wanting more follow-up?  We'll wrap up the session with time for more interaction over a glass of wine and light appetizers.

So bring your ideas, and join us for MGT -- an opportunity to explore teaching ideas, make a contact, find a shared direction, and learn something new.
