As the academic year comes to its traditional triumphant start next month, faculty members of universities like Naropa are busy completing their summer activities. Ever wonder how university professors spend their summers? Although academic schedules change during the summer they don’t go away. Some professors seeking new trends in education, engage in trainings that offer new technisues to take back to their classrooms.Naropa’s summer conferences this year offer an opportunity for local faculty to work with professors from universities across the U.S., sharing their views and gathering wisdom to take back to their schools. The upcoming CACE Pedagogy Seminar (July 29-August 4) has invited professors from 17 universities in the US and Mexico to learn contemplative approaches to education.Faculty in attendance will include professors of communications, business, English language, art, psychology and health from 17 different colleges and universities across the United States and Mexico, including Colorado State University at Pueblo, University of Georgia, N. Arizona University, and University of Quintana Roo (Mexico).CPS provides a missing link in much of liberal arts education, a forum for teachers to examine their views and gain expertise in contemplative education from Naropa University faculty.
