Hello Departmental Action Team supporters! We hope this very occasional newsletter finds you well.

Announcements

• We need your help publicizing our pilot student DELTA survey! We are hoping for 2000 participants this fall. The survey helps departments characterize their culture and what students desire for change, and is a companion to our faculty DELTA survey. Please invite your undergraduate classes and fellow instructors to participate – for participating students, we will raffle off five $100 gift cards! Reply to this email with your interest, and we will send you the invitation materials.

• We received an NSF grant to host a workshop on departmental change in two year colleges with our colleague, Tara Jo Holmberg! Stay tuned for participation information in our next missive.
