This interactive virtual session — led by the Teaching Engagement Program, and joined by Dean of Students Dr. Jimmy Howard — is for faculty and graduate instructors to share how teaching and learning are being experienced in an environment that can feel politically and socially fraught. Our goal is for instructors to leave with a clearer understanding of available resources and strategies for navigating complex classroom dynamics (including strategies their colleagues share during the session). 

Our agenda includes: 

• Welcome and collective goals 

• Challenges related to teaching controversial topics and academic freedom 

• Your challenges or concerns 

• Relevant policies and resources 

• When to ask for support and who to contact 

• Pedagogical strategies for navigating challenges 

• Your needs or desired supports
