Photos from Last Year's Faculty Technology Day
The Umbrella Initiative’s first annual Faculty Technology Day was a rousing success. Thank you again — your hard work and contributions made this event possible. A special thanks to everyone who moderated sessions, for keeping the schedule moving on time, and for those who watched the registration desk during lunch. We couldn't have done it without you.
We had over 80 individuals register for the conference, both ahead of time online and on-site during the day. We received a lot of positive feedback from participants and presenters alike.
