Contemplative Practices for the 21st Century University Conference

This conference will explore ways in which the university community can work collaboratively to provide a more holistic, learner-centered educational experience in all its facets. Specifically, the conference will address the use of contemplative practices in student life, advising, teaching/learning and research, student health and wellness, and within the administration to create a more holistic, learner-centered community.

 

We invite students, faculty, staff, administrators, and professionals interested in the educational process to participate in this conversation.
