Giving to the CTE

As you have seen on the rest of the CTE website, the Center for Teaching Excellence provides resources and services to faculty, current and future, so that they can thrive as teachers and grow professionally. The CTE also engages in and supports the advancement of teaching practices and pedagogical research that stimulates the development of learning environments at Texas A&M.

We are looking for new Advancement Council members whose goals are to:

• Support the advancement of student learning at Texas A&M University;
• Provide and stimulate opportunities for Texas A&M University alumni, friends, and families to become involved in the CTE, both in service and financial support;
• Ensure that the CTE is recognized throughout the University, its alumni, their families, and the wider community, as a valuable resource for the improvement of teaching and learning; and
• Provide financial support, both directly and indirectly, to support the operations and future advancement of the CTE.

In addition, the CTE is looking for donors to support several of our key programs:

• Faculty Teaching Academy
• New Faculty Institute for Teaching and Learning
• Curriculum Redesign
• Wakonse South Conference on College Teaching
• Faculty Workshops
• Liz Miller Legacy for Learning Endowment

For more information on supporting the CTE or joining the Advancement Council, please contact Dr. Debra Fowler at dfowler@tamu.edu or by phone: 979-845-0717.
