The Center for Empowering Teaching Excellence (ETE) conference theme is “Beyond the Grade," and the keynote speaker will be Dr Jesse Stommel, the author of "Undoing the Grade: Why We Grade, and How to Stop." Traditional, high-stakes testing can not only overshadow opportunities for deeper learning but also heighten student anxiety and stifle individual creativity. “Beyond the Grade” stresses the move toward continuous, authentic, creative, and/or formative assessment and mentoring opportunities. This theme aims to open the door for richer insights into learning by fostering a growth mindset and better equipping students for real-world challenges.

The Gorongosa Restoration Project has rehabilitated the wildlife — lions, elephants, hippos, zebras, and more — following devastating war in Mozambique between 1964 and 1992. By adopting a 21st-century conservation model of balancing the needs of wildlife and people, the team is protecting and saving this beautiful wilderness, returning it to its rightful place as one of Africa’s greatest parks. Gorongosa regularly receives high acclaim from international press, including National Geographic, who in 2019 named it one of the world’s best places to visit.

Arrington Lecture 2025 | Featured speaker Richard Turley
Lecture/Readings
This fall, Utah State University Libraries will host the annual Leonard J. Arrington Mormon History Lecture, featuring distinguished historian Richard E. Turley Jr. His lecture, titled Team History: The Latter-day Saint Historical Enterprise, 1986–2025, will explore how collaboration transformed modern Latter-day Saint history research. Turley, a former managing director of Church History and Family History for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, brings over forty years of experience to the lecture. Drawing from Leonard Arrington’s innovative “team history” model, Turley will discuss how cooperative research has made it possible to address complex historical topics in ways individual scholars could not.

Explore the exhibition, enjoy refreshments, and experience the unique opportunity to hear from co-curators of the exhibition, Dan Mills and Brad Kahlhamer. Dan Mills: Dan Mills recently retired as Director and Chief Curator of the Bates College Museum of Art where he has overseen dozens of exhibitions, encompassing multiple mediums and groupings of artists, including contemporary works by artistis from Suadi Arabia as well as Native American and Black artisits. Brad Kahlhamer: Born to Native parents and adopted by a German-American family, Brad spent his early adulthood as a musician living on the road before settling in New York City in the early 1980s. Now, he divides his time between New York and Mesa, Arizona, and travels where he is working, exhibiting, performing, or "yondering", as he describes it.
