Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to invite you to the 12th CSU Regional Symposium on University Teaching, and we are delighted to be hosting the event in 2009 at Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo. This is an opportunity for you to interact with faculty who are committed to excellence in teaching across the CSU system.

The CSU Symposium is a peer-reviewed conference for teaching and learning. We hope that you submit your work for a conference presentation or poster session. These conferences have proven to be inspiring, energetic events that renew and invigorate the CSU's commitment to teaching and learning. The conference offers the following content areas for conference proposals:

• Teaching and Learning Strategies
• Learning with Technology
• Universal Design for Learning
• Communication Strategies
• Learner-Centered Course Design
• Integrating Scholarship into the Classroom
• "Wild Card" (for topics that don't fit the above content areas)

The deadline for submitting proposals is March 2, 2009. The deadline for conference registration is April 1, 2009. For more information about the conference, registration and fees, travel and lodging, and submitting a proposal, please review our conference website. Also, please contact the staff of the Center for Teaching and Learning at Cal Poly SLO if you have any additional questions.

We are excited about hosting the CSU Regional Symposium on University Teaching, and we look forward to working with you to make the 2009 conference a success.

Sincerely,
Joe Grimes, Director, Faculty Professional Development
Walt Bremer, Director, Center for Teaching and Learning
