Community Resources
Learning Community Jargon
Did you ever wonder about some of the words we use to
describe Learning Communities at NKU? Here's a
quick resource for our "definitions."
Lunch is
on Us Program
Let's face it, finding time for Learning Community
faculty to meet and discuss their communities or plan their courses is
difficult. The Office of First-Year Programs is trying to make it
easier. LC faculty are invited to share lunch up to 3 times per
semester to plan, coordinate or communicate about their LC progress.
All you need to do is come to our office for a voucher BEFORE you go to
lunch and choose any of the Chartwell's locations on campus for your
meal (breakfast or dinner are also included). See the
"let's
do lunch" pdf file for more information.
