Join PLIC Faculty Fellow, Sirui Liu, for this engaging workshop. How do we tell the story of our academic lives in a way that feels authentic, compelling, and true to the complexity of our work? This workshop introduces a narrative approach to writing tenure and promotion materials, drawing inspiration from Kishotenketsu, a classic East Asian storytelling structure that highlights not only accomplishments but also the twists, challenges, and turning points that shape who we are as scholars and educators. Participants will explore how reframing their professional journey through narrative can illuminate growth, clarify impact, and bring coherence to the diverse threads of academic life. Register with the link.

Adjuncts often work in isolation, moving between classes with little time to connect. This gathering creates space to slow down, talk, and build community. No pressure, no agenda. Plan for conversation, shared experiences, and support among colleagues. Come as you are. Snacks provided. Invite a friend. No registration required.

The Teaching Exchange is a monthly 30-minute gathering designed for faculty to connect, share ideas, and talk through real teaching challenges or successes. No presentations, no prep. Just meaningful conversation, practical strategies, and time to learn from and with others across campus. No need to register, just join us in the TIIL (Smyth Hall, Room 165). Feel free to bring your lunch and have a Donuts Delite Donut!.
