In the spring of 2022, President Pines’ campuswide arts initiative issued its first call for faculty-led collaborative arts research and teaching projects. Three teams were awarded funds to explore cross-disciplinary projects that use artistic and creative thinking to enrich our research and teaching. This symposium will feature presentations from each team about their collaborative, interdisciplinary work as well as time to think about new projects for the second round of funding in spring 2023. A light lunch will be provided.
