I, held Saturday, November 13 at the Germantown Campus, was a Collegewide event for Montgomery College faculty, staff and administrators and faculty and staff from Montgomery County Public Schools and Universities at Shady Grove.
With the support of the Office of the President, the Office of Equity and Diversity, the Office of Distance Education and Learning Technologies, the Office of the Vice President and Provost GT, Mr. Jacob, GT Facilities, ITV and IT, the Center for Professional and Organizational Development, Human Resources and Institutional Advancement, the CTL was able to provide a conference-like professional development opportunity, demonstrate the wisdom of partnering with other units to provide outstanding service.
Well over 150 faculty, staff and administrators attended. Dr. Miller Newman, CTL Director and Dr. Tony Hawkins, Instructional Dean wish to thank Ms. June Clarke, Ms KitWah Boyce, Ms. Kima Earl, Ms. Jeana Beaulieu and Ms. Megan Brewer who were everywhere at once and refused to let anything fall through the cracks. We would also like to acknowledge the facilitators who not only volunteered their time as conference presenters, but also pitched in at the registration table, or hung up signs outside session rooms. The other members of the CTL staff also deserve recognition for all the work they did to enhance the professional development experience for our participants. Thank you Andy Hauff for the graphics, program, and for providing all the technology support we needed for the event. The CTL instructional designers, Dr. Carol Annink and Dr. Joseph Nwoye facilitated sessions, hosted lunch time roundtables, and monitored other sessions. I am very grateful to Jody McCargo, the CTL student assistant, who didn't blink at any of my constant requests for revisions or more coffee or to check on attendance at one session or another. Jody is a "pearl without price" and we are lucky to have him on our team. Of course, the faculty and staff at Montgomery College are second to none. The 42 facilitators for the day's event were generous with their time, energy and expertise to make sure that the quality of this CTL semi-annual event is representative of the level of our collective and individual pedagogy, scholarship expertise and collaborative spirit. I really want to thank Professor Joan Naake who collaborated with me on the event assessment tools. To Dr. Tony Hawkins, I would like to offer my sincere thanks for his support, his patience and his dogged determination to roll up his sleeves and pitch in any way he could to ensure that the CTL provided a level of service to College faculty and staff that was both personal and professional. I would be remiss if I did not thank Dr. Sanjay Rai, for his support as well. Dr. Rai served many roles on Saturday; greeter, facilitator, and co-sponsor. Pearson Publishing, Dr. Ken Weiner, Dr. Rai and the Developmental Course Redesign Task Force also played an essential role in the day's success. While we are grateful to Dr. Rai and Dr. Hawkins for their continued support, no event at the Germantown Campus can be successful without our dedicated facilities staff led by Mr. Maurice McCambley. Ms Ana Perez worked tirelessly to ensure that all our space needs were met. Ms. Diane Carroll and Mr. Harshadkumar Patel worked the day of the event to ensure that the space was clean, warm and inviting. Without the work of the facilities office, Mr. Jacob and Chartwell's, Melissa Pace and ITV, and Terry Denny in the IT office at Germantown, done almost entirely behind the scenes, the CTL would be hard pressed to have provided a suitable venue, refreshments, television coverage or audio support for its events. And to Dr. DeRionne Pollard who agreed to be the featured presenter for the day, we salute her continued commitment to faculty development and thank her for putting in yet another six day week right along with the rest of us.
Surely, I will run out of space before I run out of people to thank, so if I have missed acknowledging anyone, please accept my apology, it was not intentional. And thank you to MC Copies for the beautifully done programs.

<p>Join the <a href="https://www.montgomerycollege.edu/events/asian-pacific-heritage/" target="_blank">MC Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander</a> (AANHPI) Book Club this fall as we dive into Yoko Ogawa's <em>The Memory Police</em>, a captivating dystopian novel about the horrors of state surveillance from one of Japan's most notable writers. Hailed by<em> <a href="https://www.theguardian.com/books/2019/aug/23/the-memory-police-yoko-ogawa-review" target="_blank">The Guardian</a></em> as, "a masterpiece, meditating on totalitarianism and resistance as well as the rhythms of life and death,"<em> The Memory Police</em> will spark rich discussions on the themes of memory, loss, and individual autonomy.</p>
<p>Our first meeting will take place in late September. Those interested in joining the Book Club can e-mail Yvonne Hu-Cotto, Michelle Chan, and/or Nghi Nguyen. The Zoom meeting link will be provided as a calendar invite.</p>
