During the 2022 Commencement ceremony, Grinnell College will award honorary degrees to the following individuals who have made major contributions to the fields of law, science, humanities, and social science. Grinnell honors three faculty members retiring in 2022 for their years of service and bestows on them the title of emeritus faculty.
As we conclude our semester, we continue to experience and seek to acknowledge the many ways that the pandemic has placed sustained stress on the mental and physical health of our community. The intensity of our communal experience calls for action out of the ordinary to provide a change in pace and time for relief. Time is simultaneously among the most valued and the scarcest of elements of the academic experience, and the action detailed below seeks to institute a demonstrable change of pace for each of us to advance our well-being within our work — a moment to breathe in our hectic schedules.
Givens will present "The Fugitive Life of Black Teaching: A History of Pedagogy and Power" at 11:00 a.m. Thursday, Sept. 23, 2021 in Humanities and Social Studies Center, Room A1231.
Each major and concentration at Grinnell College has a Student Educational Policy Committee (SEPC), a group of students who are “working to improve student experience in the major or concentration department and the Grinnell community as a whole.”
This is the inaugural year of recognizing Juneteenth with a holiday, giving employees of the College an opportunity to celebrate the historic day with loved ones.
The Board of Trustees has approved the awarding of tenure, and President Anne F. Harris has approved numerous faculty promotions for the 2021–22 academic year.
