CTL regularly organizes year long seminars on topics of general interest to faculty. These seminars meet once a month and have a set of core members. As space allows, faculty may also sign up for individual sessions.

Faculty who become core members of the seminar and participate monthly will receive an $800 research fund. This fund may be used for scholarly expenses such as books, computer equipment, research travel, etc. Members of the core will attend all of the seminars and may, at some point during the year, observe a colleague teaching.
