CAFE Initiatives

Check out past CAFE Initiatives, Programs, and Events!  If you are interested in receiving additional information about any of our programs, or in providing feedback and suggestions, please complete the form associated with the event!

Our continued goal is to present a variety of programs, events, and opportunities to faculty and begin to build interest and input on what to plan for the future. Your involvement is critical to the trajectory and direction of future CAFE programs, so please, get involved.
