AGENDA
Keynote:
Dr. Chae Sweet – Vice President for Academic Affairs, Montgomery County Community College
- “The Road Taken”: Twenty-four years ago, I had every intention of being a cloistered and solitary writer who was well-read but rarely seen. As “way leads on to way,” I made a series of choices that led me to become an English professor, a dean, and now a vice president. What drew me to take this journey, this road, when two roads diverged before me? The Road Taken reveals the seemingly innocuous conversations and moments that led to a professional journey I was absolutely meant to take. Join me for a conversation about listening for the call that whistles through your soul and being brave and curious enough to discover where it leads.
Health & Well-Being Session
Dr. Gina Turner — Psychology Professor, Northampton Community College & Certified Yoga Instructor and Wellness coach
