Program Ideas

The Faculty Engagement Initiative provides funding for programs that bring together students and members of the faculty in settings outside of the classroom. Programs should fall into one of six categories:

  1. FYRE-Side Chats
  2. Sophomore Advantage
  3. Graduate Advisor Faculty Discussions
  4. Faculty SIPs
  5. Community Dinners
  6. CFS Connections

While the majority of funding provided will go towards programs that occur in the residence halls, a small percentage may be allocated to programs that occur outside of the residence halls and/or off-campus. These requests are evaluated on a case by case basis.  Remember to get creative when developing program ideas for faculty engagement programs. Think outside of the box!

Here are some examples of programs that were funded during the 2006-2007 academic year:

  • Cluster BBQ with favorite professors
  • Game night with professor
  • Faculty appreciation dinner
  • “Blink” book discussion club
  • Hop performances (students attending with professors)
  • Faculty/student brunch before class
  • Luncheon at Hanover Inn
  • New release movie viewing and discussion
  • Final exam study session with faculty
  • International Health Night
  • Faculty cooking classes
  • Iron Chef Dartmouth
  • FY family weekend dinner with professors and parents
  • Cultural dinner nights
  • Major declaration events
  • Pre-med major discussion
  • Spice cooking night
  • LSA dinner discussion
  • Senior theses celebrations
