Message from the Office of the Provost
September 25, 2009
To All University Faculty:
As you know, we are considering various ways to better serve our students in the summer terms. One challenge we face is to help students fit courses into their packed summer schedules which may already include plans for work, vacation, mission trips and visits home. To help meet this unique challenge, the summer term seems particularly suited for new and innovative course offerings that provide students additional learning opportunities in ways that may be different from our regular semester course offerings.
You will find more information about each of these grants on this website as well as information on the proposal process. We plan to fund multiple grants in each category, so I encourage you to submit a proposal for one or both of these grants.
Thank you for your continued creative work to enhance student learning at
Associate Provost for Academic Administration
and Strategic Initiatives
