Dear Colleagues,
This summer Hampton University will be sponsoring a UNCF/Mellon Teaching and Learning Institute. This program was ". . .established to create opportunities for UNCF faculty to come together through workshops, seminars and/or mini-conferences to share strategies, scholarship and 'best practices' that help strengthen the teaching and learning environment" at our HBCUs (UNCF/Mellon website).
Our title for this summer's institute is “Extending a Legacy of International Presence and Outreach at HBCUs-Social Justice and Education Policy for the Twenty-First Century.” The two-day institute will take place on Hampton's campus from Wednesday, August 10th through Friday, August 12.
Please see the attached invitation and announcement. The attached communiqué provides more information about the theme for the institute and how interested individuals can apply for participation (submitting a brief statement of interest with CV). Please circulate this information among your departments and share with other colleagues on your campuses. The institute is limited to 20 participants. Invited participants--who are not members of the Hampton University community--will received room and board along with a $500 stipend.
I thank you for your time and attention to this matter. Please do not hesitate to contact me, should you have any questions or need additional information.
Sincerely,
