We're moving our date to Tuesday in order to have a chance to talk with Professor Erazim Kohák of Charles University in Prague. After teaching at Gustavus and Boston University, Kohák returned to his native Czechoslovakia at the time of the Velvet Revolution. In Prague he is known as an advocate for democracy and the environment. Join us to discuss his perspectives on higher education and the role of the scholar in public affairs.

Join Leila Brammer, Alisa Rosethal, and your colleagues from across the disciplines on for a discussion about the meaning of shared governance. How does it affect the academic program, the Gustavus Commission 150 planning process, and the college as a whole? Why is it important? How has it worked and how should it work at Gustavus? What rights and obligations does it carry?

Join Julie Gilbert and your colleagues to discuss best teaching and learning practices in the classroom and explore how these questions might become part of a larger research agenda. Conversation will center around how we reflect, test, and write about what happens in the classroom.
