Changes

One of the biggest assets to ASU--the size and diversity of  its opportunitiesmany programs and resources-- also works to keep students and faculty isolated. This unintended consequence needs to be intentionally addressed through "unsilo-ing" activities. As such, one of our tactics is to create events and opportunities that bring different disciplinary groups into conversation with each other. Our primary tactic --, an annual conference-- , would just be a first step towards establishing a more permament institutional habit of cross-disciplinary collaborations and socialization.
