Community Campus Roundup
September 21, 2009
New Mexico State University Carlsbad is proud to host NMSU’s Fall 2009 Branch Campus Round-Up. This year’s Round-Up takes place Friday and Saturday, September 25 and 26, on the Carlsbad Campus and everyone in the NMSU community is invited.
This year’s theme is “Educating Challenging Students.” Challenges of student retention, preparedness, expectations, and classroom behaviors, and are among the issues that will be explored at this year’s Round-Up.
In connection with this year’s theme, the event involves presentations from the Las Cruces campus about civility in workplace and preventing harassment, as well as presentations on the opportunities available through the Fulbright Scholarship program and an overview of the Office of Strategic Initiatives and the GRID program. Importantly, the Round-Up provides an opportunity for discipline councils comprised of chairs and faculty members from NMSU’s campuses to meet to communicate and promote alignment of academic departments throughout the university.

Registration for the Round-Up is $50.00, but participants can take advantage of a discounted registration fee of $35.00 if they register on or before September 21.
