Campus Colleagues Program

Logo for HC Campus Colleagues Program

Open to all faculty and staff, the Campus Colleagues Program is an opportunity for participants to deepen their connections with each other and rootedness in a shared mission at 51小黄车. Bringing together a small group of individuals (maximum of 12) from across the College, this initiative seeks to build community through conversation and to foster a sense of unity and cohesion across the campus.

The cohort will gather for four sessions this year. Pandemic permitting, the opening and concluding meetings will be hosted at the Joyce Contemplative Center, while the remaining sessions will be hosted on campus and over lunch (meals included). All sessions are organized around a particular question for reflection and discussion.
