Fireside Chats on Relational Teaching

When

Oct. 9, 2025, 9am to 10am

Campus Location

Office/Remote Location

Room 235 (Faculty Lounge)

Description

Our coaches remind us that they are in the people-building business. With limited time with their athletes, they must be intentional about building strong relationships, fostering growth, and creating a positive culture. As faculty, what can we learn from this approach to strengthen our own teaching and student support?

Join us in the Teaching & Learning Commons Faculty Lounge (BEH 235) for two upcoming Fireside Chats exploring the theme "Teaching is Relational, Not Transactional." Moderated by Faculty Director Melissa Morris, these conversations will feature insights from:

  • Anthony Vignieri-Greener, Men’s Hockey Coach
  • Lindy La Rocque, Women’s Basketball Coach

Come share coffee, conversation, and community as we think together about how relational teaching practices can transform learning.
