ATL Walk & Talk

Looking for a way to connect with colleagues? Need a break from the stresses of faculty life? Come walk with us! This opportunity gives instructors an informal way to engage with peers, take a leisurely stroll/roll around campus, and discuss teaching and learning topics that are top of mind. Bring a colleague or join on your own!

Sign up here to let us know your interest and needs, and to receive email updates during the semester. Or, just drop by the Flagpole on the Quad any Wednesday at 10am to enjoy a conversation and stroll/roll!

  • Meet at the flagpole on the northeast corner of the Quad, across from Bliss and East Halls. 
  • Wheelchairs and other assistive devices are welcome.
  • Join us for as few or as many walks as you like, at your convenience!
  • No event on Nov. 26 and the last Walk & Talk is Dec. 17
