Upcoming Literary Circles
![Book cover for Unraveling Faculty Burnout](https://utlc.uncg.edu/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/faculty-burnout.jpeg)
In Spring 2024, the UTLC will partner with the Provost’s Faculty Fellows to offer a literary circle featuring “Unraveling Faculty Burnout: Pathways to Reckoning and Renewal” by Dr. Rebecca Pope-Ruark. The book is available as a free eBook through our library.
We will meet five times during the spring semester (meetings will be both face to face and hybrid) and refreshments will be provided. While this event is centered around the text, this event also has a broader context of offering an opportunity for faculty to gather together to discuss burnout causes and solutions. Faculty do not need to attend all the meetings and do not have to read the chapters to attend the meetings: our goal is to provide a space for conversation and connection about this topic, with a focus on hope and renewal. The meeting location is to be determined, with dates and times as follows:
- January 18 (Thursday); 2:00-3:00 PM
- February 6 (Tuesday); 10:00-11:00 AM
- February 29 (Thursday); 2:00-3:00 PM
- March 19 (Tuesday); 10:00-11:00 AM
- April 9 (Tuesday); 12:30-2:00 [Lunch provided]
If you’re interested in this opportunity (even if you’re not sure about which meetings you may be able to attend), please fill out the interest form below so that we can add you to the Canvas group and provide you with meeting details; there will be virtual resources available regardless of whether you are able to attend any or all the meetings. We will send information about the book, Canvas link, and location of the meetings after you complete the interest form.
