The 21st annual Celebrating College Teaching Conference took place Oct. 23 and 24, 2014 at the Kent Student Center. The University Teaching Counsel's annual conference focuses on the four pillars of a Kent State undergraduate curriculum — knowledge, insight, responsibility and engagement.
The conference kicked off with the Thursday Evening Dialogue, and Friday's activities included:
- Provost's Breakfast
- Round tables (refereed and invited, including the Emeriti Round Table, featuring Emerita Senior Associate Athletic Director Judith Devine)
- poster displays
- President's Luncheon; and the Glenn W. Frank Lecture, by Emerita Associate Professor Barbara Hipsman Springer.
The conference culminated with a dessert reception at 2:30 p.m., to honor recipients of the Distinguished Teaching Awards and the Outstanding Teaching Awards, as well as the wealth of teaching excellence at Kent State.
