Demystifying Student Evals

Connect Across Campus

Connect Across Campus is a voluntary opportunity for faculty and staff to experience different spaces and programs at Trine during the Friday Flex Hour throughout each semester from 12:00-12:50 p.m. The goal is to provide a low-stakes opportunity to come together in a new space, learn, play or create, and build collegiality. Locations and topics will be shared via email monthly.
