Sinclair Community College is excited to be the host institution for the 2018 Ohio Association of Community Colleges’ annual conference on Friday, October 12, 2018. The conference theme celebrates the inherent diversity that creates the fabric of our two-year colleges. The conference consists of 35+ different presentations and will culminate with an awards luncheon. The keynote speaker is Joan Maloof, author of Teaching the Trees: Lessons from the Forest, an interdisciplinary look at fostering stewardship by exploring the interwoven connections between trees, animals, insects and humans whose lives depend on it – and who, in turn, work to ensure the tree’s survival. Faculty may apply to the CTL for career seminar funding to pay the registration fee. Download and complete the application, travel request and registration forms here.
