EVENT DESCRIPTION 

This second year of the Participating Faculty Symposium focuses on the theme of collaboration—in teaching, to support student success, in faculty research, and in leadership positions on campus. This symposium shines a light on participating (full-time, part-time, and adjunct nontenure-stream) faculty as educators, scholars, and leaders at Marquette. Stemming from a deep desire of participating faculty in two Communities of Practice hosted since Spring 2023 and the good work of many in our campus community, this event honors great work being done by these faculty who teach Marquette’s students, produce valuable scholarship, and who are willing to share their expertise with the wider campus community through this symposium. All sessions are organized, hosted, and facilitated by participating faculty across campus with this year’s theme of collaboration putting a strong spotlight on collaboration among participating faculty, with their tenure stream colleagues, with graduate students, and with staff at Marquette for the benefit of all.   

GOALS 

By the end of the symposium, conference attendees and participants should:  

1. Learn and discuss what participating faculty members’ collaborative teaching, research, and leadership looks like across campus;  
2. Connect with each other to cultivate community, network, get new ideas, and contribute to our teaching and research communities;  
3. Celebrate successes in teaching among all symposium participants, sharing tips and tricks for success;  
4. Elevate awareness about resources available to participating faculty to support them in their teaching, research, and leadership desires.

WHO SHOULD COME? 

All faculty, staff, and graduate students should come! Participating (adjunct and full-time) tenured, and tenure track faculty and staff in all units on campus are welcome to attend.
