The 2006 Indiana Faculty Leadership Institute promises to be an engaging conference.
The Institute's theme, Citizenship in a 21st Century World, enables each campus to identify
their own project, that in successive years will move from definition and "selling" of an idea through implementation and assessment of the effect the team has had on campus
education.
Campus teams will explore issues related to developing civic and moral responsibility in
a global as well as local context. Working within the overall university-wide goal and theme
of the Institute, each campus team will generate an action plan for initiating conversation
among their campus colleagues to influence curricular content and pedagogical strategies.
"An education that teaches you to understand something about the world has done only
half of the assignment. The other half is to teach you to do something about making the
world a better place." - Johnnetta Cole
