Greetings SSU Faculty, Staff and Students:
On behalf of the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs, you are invited to our inaugural SSU Spotlight on Scholarship lecture series. Spotlight on Scholarship is a campuswide lecture series for faculty members to present their research, scholarly, or creative activities to a wide audience. This is designed to elevate the work that faculty are doing at Sonoma State, foster collaborations, and engage students.
We have had a wonderful response from faculty, who are excited to share and present to our campus with a lineup of presentations beginning this fall semester, starting with Dr. Florence Bouvet on October 17. Details for Dr. Bouvet’s presentation are included in this email along with the schedule for upcoming events.
This series will continue into the 2024 spring semester with a separate announcement and schedule of presentations.
