Fall 2012 “Tour” – PR, NY … in FL now, Alaska next week, then Texas


This afternoon I gave a talk on social media at the Sloan Director’s meeting as part of the 2102 SREB Compact for Faculty Diversity/Institute on Teaching and Mentoring in Tampa, Florida. Earlier this week, I also discussed social media with administrators at Cornell.  Both talks reminded me that I hadn’t posted on my own blog in a while. I have been very busy this semester! Here is the “tour” schedule that I promised for Fall 2012, including some events that have already occurred. Thanks to all of the organizations who invited me to present this Fall! (Student Development Center, Ana G. Mendez University System – Puerto Rico, Cornell University Graduate School and College of Engineering, University of Puerto Rico Rio Piedras –
