Through an NSF grant, the Council of Colleges of Arts and Sciences (CCA)is offering a full waiver of seminar registration fees and $500 to offset travel costs for a participant in one of the following:
Seminar for Department Chairs, February 24-26, Charlotte, NC
Seminar for Department Chairs, July 7-9, St. Louis, MO
Seminar for Department Chairs, October 2-4, San Diego, CA
Seminar for New Deans, July 10-13, St. Louis, MO
The Council of Colleges of Arts and Sciences is a national association of nearly 500 baccalaureate degree-granting colleges of arts and sciences. Our active participants are the deans, associate deans, and assistant deans of the arts and/or sciences, and those individuals number about 1,600. CCAS has offered these popular leadership seminars for over twenty years. They are led by teams of experienced deans who volunteer to coordinate and facilitate the programs. Funding is provided by the ADVANCE grant to facilitate participation in these programs by academic leaders from minority serving institutions. Please note that funding is limited to those who have direct oversight of STEM departments. More information can be found on the CCAS website at www.ccas.net, and our recently completed "Strategic Plan & Membership Survey" is provided at http://www.ccas.net/files/CCAS_StrategicPlan2010_web.pdf.
Interested STEM deans or chairs should by contact me by phone or email as soon as possible because spaces will be filled on a first-come, first-served basis:
