Fall 2013 sure did come and go quickly! We would like to thank everyone who participated in the CETL workshops and events. We would like to take a moment to highlight the following Faculty and Staff for being leaders on the leaderboard and earning numerous badges:

The leaderboard resets on Dec. 20 for the spring 2014 semester. We know this is the last week before the break, but if you still want to stop by for individual consultations or just to say hello/have a cup of hot cocoa we will be in our office.
