**Fall 2024 Human Skills Cohort**

At Seneca, this season brings new faces, new schedules, and new opportunities, and the Curriculum Integration project is no exception. This fall, Teaching & Learning is rolling out the fourth pillar of curriculum integration, Human Skills!

Our first Human Skills cohort will be kicking off their session on Wednesday, September 4^th^, and concluding their time with a Sharing and Celebration Day on Wednesday, November 27^th^. We’re so excited to work with these Faculty  Champions and look forward to learning from each other.****

### Classroom Connection: Spilling the Equi-TEA with Akeisha Lari

Now that we are back in the classroom, we will be launching a new monthly feature that will provide practical and thoughtful connections to EDI for our students. Every month, Akeisha Lari, Manager Reconciliation and Student Inclusion, will be sharing these insights in our Classroom Connection feature, Spilling the Equi-TEA. Check out the first installment below and let us know what you think!
