These lunches can be used to initiate discussion of an area of common teaching interest or of methods of teaching (including team teaching). We will circulate a list of lunches via e-mail by January 20, 2008

In return, we ask the following of lunch organizers:
1. A title, a brief description, and a date (any time between now and spring break). Send these to Jean Cousins at cousins@grinnell.edu

2. A brief report outlining the key issues that arose from the lunch. Please be advised that we intend to publish these on the Office of Interdisciplinary Studies web site.

We also ask that those who sign up for lunches attend them, so that food doesn't go to waste.
