We offer thematic series and sessions in which Lafayette faculty, staff, students, and/or external speakers lead discussions on a variety of topics relevant to teaching and learning at Lafayette.
The Center facilitates and manages communities of practice and communities of belonging. These topic- or cohort-based groups meet regularly to share strategies and resources, as well as network and fellowship. Current communities of practice are listed on the CITLS website. Faculty and staff members are invited to join these communities.
We offer a variety of initiatives that include full-day or multi-day institutes, forums, and academies (e.g. Teaching Squares, Student Pedagogical Partnership Program). One of our signature programs is New Faculty Orientation, a multi-day program held in August to help all new faculty transition to campus successfully and get to know campus partners and each other before the start of the academic year. New faculty also engage in weekly community lunches throughout their first year at the college. More information on our initiatives for new faculty can be found here.
