SUMMARY:The Heart of Higher Education
DESCRIPTION:A three-day virtual event, including time with Parker Palmer, Laura Rendón, Rosemerry Wahtola Trommer and an optional one-day small group experience.\nWe live in a changed world.

While the event is designed for all who work in higher education, we also welcome anyone who considers themselves an educator. Parker J. Palmer will join us in this time of inner reflection and outer commitment to cultivating a renewed vision of education.\nWe are also aware that funding for professional development during the pandemic and post pandemic may be limited.
