What Will You Say about the Future?

Conversations on October 3rd about the Role of Retired Faculty in the University

On October 3rd, you will represent hundreds of future retired faculty by contributing to the discussion of the Role of Retired Faculty in the University. WE NEED YOUR VOICE.

Please come hear the results of a national survey about what universities are doing, including an innovation called "the emeritus college." Then listen to the responses of a panel who will comment on the implications of the study for small universities like Rice. Afterward, join others at the roundtables over lunch and add your insights: What is the best idea in other schools' programs? What could work and how? What was missing? What innovations can we add that will position Rice as a leader in education's longevity landscape?  

PLEASE REPRESENT FUTURE RETIREES AT THIS EVENT BY SENDING AN EMAIL TO DIANA HEARD AT DIANA.HEARD@RICE.EDU for registration for this free half-day conference (9:30 a.m. to 1:15 p.m.) at the Susanne M. Glasscock School of Continuing Studies on the Rice University Campus. Registration required to permit luncheon planning.

Dr. Roger Baldwin, Principal Speaker
