Ninth Annual Faculty Day
Faculty Day is an opportunity for members of all departments to come together to share research, creative work and pedagogical ideas to build interdisciplinary cooperation at BCC.
The event is organized by the Committee on Instruction and Professional Development, with the Office of Academic and Student Success and the Center for Teaching, Learning and Technology.
This year’s Faculty Day features a keynote address by Felicia Rose Chavez entitled: “Navigating a New Era at BCC: Challenges and Innovation.”
Ms. Chavez is an award-winning educator with an MFA in Creative Writing from the University of Iowa. She is the author of The Anti-Racist Writing Workshop: How to Decolonize the Creative Classroom and co-editor of The BreakfastBeat Poets Volume 4 with Willie Perdomo and Jose Olivarez.
Her teaching career began in Chicago, where she served as the Program Director to Young Chicago Authors and founded GirlSpeak, a feminist webzine for high school students.
The awards she has received for academic scholarship include: Ronald E. McNair Fellowship, a University of Iowa Graduate Dean’s Fellowship, a Riley Scholar Fellowship and a Hadley Creatives Fellowship.
She currently serves as the Creativity and Innovation Scholar-In-Residence at Colorado College.
