What is the Residential Colleges Office
The Residential Colleges Office (RCO) is the administrative and faculty development center for UNCG’s three Residential Colleges (RCs): Ashby RC, Grogan RC, and Strong RC. Directed by Dr. Jennifer Stephens, the RCO provides opportunities for faculty and graduate students to develop and hone their teaching praxis through teaching appointments, Graduate Teaching Fellowships and faculty mentorships, workshops and brown bag luncheons on High-Impact Educational Practices (HIPs), teaching consultations, opportunities to observe HIPs in organic classroom environments, and Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) opportunities in general education and integrated and applied learning.
The Minerva Magazine is an annual publication focused on the research efforts of our students and faculty. The name of the magazine pays homage to the Roman goddess of wisdom, who has served as an unofficial mascot since 1893.
