Building Bright Futures Together. Learning College Week Spring 2025.

Thursday, January 23, 2025

Unless otherwise noted, all of the sessions will be in-person at the Fremont campus. We have a whole menu of gatherings from which to choose, starting with sessions on how to support our students – the undocumented, those seeking scholarships, those with mental and physical health needs. Other highlights include the always popular Master Teacher Workshop and Affinity Group sack lunch gatherings – with the debut of the Women’s Affinity group. Division and department meetings round out the day. Starting at 3 PM, departments have the option of how they’d like to meet. Some are eager to meet in person; others are opting for Zoom to maximize attendance.

Reminders

Interpreters

If you need an interpreter for any session in which you are interested in attending, please send your request to Deaf Studies Interpreter Request as soon as possible.

Pre-registration

We'll update the Master Calendar (and this page) with Zoom links as they become available. When you click on the link to join a session, you will be prompted to provide your name and email address. This will allow the session leader to run an attendance report later – eliminating the need for sign-in sheets. If you click on the link prior to the leader launching the session, you will be sent an email confirmation with a link to click as you get closer to the session start. If you click on the link after the session has been launched, you’ll have the option to “Join session in progress.”

Your feedback matters. I’ll be sending out the link to the daily evaluation form after the last session every day. Keep an eye out.
