American Swedish Institute Collaboration Posted on October 9th, 2009 by Barb Larson Taylor

Recommendation from the Academic Programs and New Initiatives Task Force:

Develop “Gustavus in the City” hosted at the American Swedish Institute to facilitate presentations by faculty, staff, and alumni of the college in the Twin Cities.  

Additional explanation:

Ideally this would be a course series, not just one-time lectures. Special emphasis can be on taking or re-taking favorite courses or addressing issues related to different life stages. Course participants could create a cohort and connect online in between and after course completion to enhance the engagement.

This recommendation was placed in the Partnerships and Collaborations Strategic Framework Substantive Category using the language:

Develop a program hosted at the American Swedish Institute to facilitate presentations by faculty, staff, and alumni of the college in the Twin Cities.

This recommendation was placed is Tier 1 and is being monitored by the Vice President for Institutional Advancement.
