Christina Kopinski News Release
The Faculty Speaker Series showcases recent experiences that have enriched both the lives and teaching of Clark’s faculty members. The Speakers will share their faculty development experiences with the college community -- potentially addressing some of today’s most intriguing issues. This series aims to join the college community in learning through our own faculty’s wide range of interests and achievements.
Faculty members are invited to present experiences including sabbatical, research, field work, community outreach, or conference/workshop findings.
