Teaching & Learning at CC

Faculty Programming Calendar

Consistently, we hear from faculty and staff members that our campus is over-programmed, making any attempt to schedule an event feel difficult and self-defeating. In an effort to both illuminate this issue and combat programming over one another, the Crown Faculty Center has curated a calendar of faculty-facing events, workshops, and other opportunities available at CC for faculty.

Faculty Calendar

This calendar contains a collection of faculty-facing events and gatherings, with the intention of both sharing these events and aiding in the scheduling of other events. If you have an event you'd like to have included on the calendar, please complete this form.
