Listening sessions available with Purdue President-elect Chiang

As a reminder of the announcement on June 30, Purdue University President-elect Mung Chiang will be meeting with faculty, staff and students at Purdue’s West Lafayette campus during the 2022-23 academic year, including listening to every tenure-track/tenured, clinical and research faculty.

Listening sessions with faculty will begin Aug. 16. Chiang will host up to five faculty members in each half-hour listening session, with the goal of meeting with all the faculty colleagues by April 2023. With more than 2,000 faculty members, there will be approximately 450 sessions. The dates to sign up for fall 2022 sessions are available online. Faculty can choose to sign up for the date and time they prefer. Dates for spring 2023 will be made available at a later time. Faculty in the College of Engineering are encouraged to wait for the spring time slots, as many faculty have previously met with Chiang individually during his listening tour when he arrived five years ago.

Listening sessions with student, faculty, staff, and alumni organizations are being arranged. Individual students and staff are also invited to sign up during the weekly listening hours online.

Throughout the 2022-23 academic year, Chiang will visit Purdue's regional campuses, statewide locations, and Extension offices in all 92 counties.
