The Bridge is a faculty-only flexible physical space, outfitted with tech and comfy alternative seating. Its primary purpose is to provide you with a always-reserved space for a meeting, for working on your online course, for a change of scenery, for new ideas (there’s books and iPads in there!), to pick up some resources (like lights and cameras), and for training.
In the recent survey I sent out (fill it out here if you want!), here were the top needs:

On November 18, our campus will join institutions worldwide for Fix Your Content Day 2025! This 24-hour competition is part of our ongoing commitment to inclusive education.
Together, we’ll aim to fix as many accessibility issues and course files as possible using Anthology® Ally. Every fix—big or small—contributes to a more inclusive learning environment for all students.
We came in FOURTH in the WORLD last year – let’s aim higher!!
Did you know the move toward Accessibility across web-based “stuff” has a due date? It does! (April 24, 2026 is the day all public institutions need to have all their Internet Things formatted to be accessible to all audiences.)
We’ve been working on this slowly but surely (including winning 4th place globally for Fix Your Content Day 2024), but if you have lingering questions about how to fix your content, here’s where to go for the answers!
Register here for synchronous or recorded workshops over various types of content.
THIS Friday, 9/12!
Here’s some recordings from Convocation, if you didn’t get a chance to attend the breakouts you would have liked to.
