6th Annual New Lecturer Orientation
Wednesday, August 23, 2023
Michigan League (map)
2:15 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.
Registration is now closed for 2023.
The LSA New Lecturer Orientation is designed for Lecturers I and III who are new to LSA to learn about relevant LSA policies and resources that can support them in their teaching, teach them more about setting up course technology, and allow them to talk with experienced LSA lecturers about U-M culture and resources. We hope this is a starting point for lecturers to build community among themselves across departments.
