Spring 2022 reading group
Center for Excellence in Learning and Teaching
During the spring 2022 semester CELT will sponsor a reading group focused on Relationship-Rich Education: How Human Connections Drive Success in College. Once again, we will be joined by our colleagues from SUNY-Plattburgh in this reading group. This book provides some very timely suggestions on how we can work to help build stronger support networks for our students in our classes and throughout our institution.
