The Auburn Symposium: Cross Cultural Perspectives on University Teaching
and Learning, February 19 & 20, 2010.
Registration Now Open!
The Symposium will be held in the new Student Center at Auburn
University in Auburn, AL. In recognition of these difficult economic
times, the registration fee is just $99 per person, which includes 8
speakers, 5 meals, entertainment and handouts. The Symposium will
feature speakers who will discuss the impact of cultural context and
background on teaching and learning in higher education. Cultural
perspectives to be presented are Chinese, African American, Latino,
Korean, Muslim and Hindu. As our colleges and universities become more
diverse, these perspectives are critical for faculty, students, and
university personnel to understand. There will also be breakout
sessions to discuss how this information can be applied to our college
classrooms. Meals and entertainment with an international flavor will
also highlight the Symposium. To read presentation abstracts, learn
