The Hostos Center for Teaching and Learning and Office of Academic Affairs are calling for participants in a one-year interdisciplinary multi-campus initiative supported by an NEH grant. The activity will bring together faculty participants from across CUNY, to:

* promote the teaching of the humanities;

* help faculty develop syllabi and curricula that unify students' academic experience;

* generate ideas for first-year inquiry and capstone courses.

Participants will receive stipends to attend a workshop (Friday-Saturday October 23-24, 2009), 5 lectures/seminars during the 2009-2010 academic year, and a culminating workshop in May 2010. All events will be held at Hostos.

Application deadline: October 9, 2009.
