this is a kind reminder for the one or two slides of the 3/4-year courses you will be teaching in the coming year (or you have been teaching in the last two years and are likely to be offered again). please email to me
thanks to all the feedback i have been receiving in the last few days, and we now believe that we can do the program info/pizza party even better than engineering, and i believe our students will appreciate that
particularly, i want to thank the colleagues who have agreed to serve as the “area rep” to cover some programs/areas (we have 7 program options and 8 combined programs, and we are still missing the rep for CS/business)
the pizza party will start from 12noon in ecs668 on wednesday, oct 14, and will be expanded to ecs660 with talks from 12:30pm. all department members are encouraged to attend. when the area rep comes to your courses and if you are present, you can just stand up and talk about the slides yourself. we will combine all slides and load into one computer to save the switch time, so that’s why we need your slides this week, as we also need to distribute them to area reps to get familiar with them, just in case you are not present that time. they will also need to have a few overview slides for the programs/areas leading to your course slides. so please send your slides to me on time (even a draft is fine, and you can give me an updated version one day before the pizza party the latest)
also please announce the event to your students and encourage them to attend. jeannie has prepared a nice one-page slide you can use before or after your lectures (if you don’t have it, please let me know). just as we told them “Get to know our programs, your professors, and all the people around you, while enjoying some pizza and pop!” we’d be there for them again, thanks for your support and participation
