The conference themes for this conference are:

Teaching the disciplines: How are we doing?

What is it we want students to know and understand from, or about, the disciplines we teach, at both the K—12 and university levels? What are the truths the different disciplines aspire to reveal—the big questions they ask and try to answer, the perfection they seek to attain? How well do K—12 and university teachers convey these truths or give students access to them?

Why don’t we read serious books anymore?

Should we care that so many students, and so many teachers, can’t or don’t want to read books—not just at the K—12 level, but in colleges and universities, too?

You can find information about the program and registration in the documents attached.

The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) issued a Notice of Proposed Rulemaking (NPRM) issued on September 2, 2015 as a draft of the final rule intended to modernize, strengthen, and make more effective the current Federal regulations on protections of human subjects (the Common Rule).  The NPRM was published in the Federal Register on September 8, 2015 for public comment; comments must be received by 5:00 pm on December 7, 2015. 

There are plans to release several webinars that will explain the changes proposed in the NPRM, and a town hall meeting planned to be held in Washington, D.C. in October.  The ORPC will inform the campus community of the dates of these information sessions and will distribute comments and guidance from the IRB as it becomes available.

Check back regularly on the ORPC events page for more information.
