Through this initiative, faculty are empowered to serve as the drivers of the collaboration. PATH staff can assist with basic logistics and administration of funds. Fund requests should be under $1,500 unless a significant amount of students will be impacted. Fund requests over $1,500 will be considered if it is a large collaborative activity between UC San Diego and SDCCD – expected outcomes on the activity must be provided.
Successful examples of past initiatives include:
- Undergraduate Philosophy reading group led by SDCCD and UC San Diego faculty
- Italian Studies professors from both institutions taking students on a joint field
trip to see “Rigoletto”
- SDCCD and UC San Diego students attended joint workshops on “Storytelling” and “How
to Sustain a Creative Life”
- SDCCD Philosophy professor audited a UC San Diego class to take elements of it back
to SDCCD
- Faculty from both institutions coming together over dinner to discuss innovative
humanities pedagogy
