Teaching Recognition in a Changing Academic Landscape: A Leadership Roundtable

Description:
Building on themes raised by our keynote speaker, Dr. Kevin Gannon, we are envisioning a dialogue that explores how we demonstrate—structurally and culturally—that teaching matters at CSU. The conversation could touch on how institutional systems, policies, recognition structures, and narratives signal the value of teaching and the scholarship of teaching and learning. Our goal is to create space for thoughtful reflection and dialogue between faculty and leadership on these themes.
