The second edition of the Faculty Lunch with the Provost this fall semester was another occasion for faculty members to have meaningful dialogue with EVP and Provost Dr. Debbie M. Thorne. Through this small-setting networking event, Provost Thorne continues to make thoughtful connections with faculty members, providing an opportunity for them to share their feedback and concerns. Provost Thorne looks forward to meeting more faculty members during the two sessions taking place in the spring semester.
