Teach in Planning Committee

February 5, 2024

Dear Members of the Brandeis Community:

We write to share with you the full roster of members of the university-wide Teach-In planning committee. The committee will advise us on next steps following the December 5th Teach-In, providing recommendations for events, topics, and potential presenters/facilitators. Members of the committee were drawn from a pool of nearly 90 nominees that included faculty, staff, researchers, graduate students, and undergraduates. We are grateful for their efforts to develop more pathways to complex and healthy campus dialogues that will strengthen our sense of community, and look forward to receiving the committee’s recommendations in the coming weeks.
