To students, faculty, staff, and alumni of the College of Arts: You’re invited to join us at an open meeting where we begin our strategic planning process. Bring your voices, your vision, and your ideas. This meeting will be an open, dynamic opportunity to explore what you value about the College of Arts now and your hopes and aspirations for how it could become an even more collaborative, creative community.

This workshop will also discuss how to analyze and apply for job postings. Attendees are encouraged to bring their CVs.
