It's here! The first week of class begins tomorrow, giving you countless opportunities to begin rich relationships with your students. Sometimes when asked what we teach, we name a subject. But, at the end of the day, we’re all teaching people who are taking time out of their lives in the hopes that the knowledge and skills we have to share will benefit them. Students rely on your expertise but they also benefit greatly from the connections you make with them. To paraphrase Maya Angelou, your students may forget what you say and do but they will never forget how you made them feel.
This semester, the faculty center calendar brims with professional development opportunities designed to make the intellectual and emotional labor of teaching feel lighter and more fulfilling. New sessions are constantly being added so continue to check this Sunday Newsletter for up to date information. Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you have a topic you’d like to see covered or a session you’d like to offer.
An Exciting Update from the Writing Center!
This semester the Writing Center is moving to the second floor of UNLV’s Campus Resource Center (CRC), Room 216. To give us time to get settled, we will reopen for Virtual and OWL Consultations on Tuesday, September 5th. In-person consultations will begin later in September.
In the meantime, you are welcome to request an in-class presentation (15-20 minutes) for one of our consultants to visit your virtual or in-person class to explain how to make the most of our services. We will share what writing resources we have available, what types of consultations we offer, and how to schedule appointments and submit to the OWL.
Find more information, including writing-related resources that you can embed in your WebCampus courses on our website. If you have other questions about the Writing Center or would like more information about how we can support you and your students, email us at writingcenter@unlv.edu.
Stay tuned for more updates regarding our move and visit our social media pages to find writing advice and announcements: Instagram: UNLVwritingcenter and Facebook: UNLVwritingcenter.
