We hope you enjoyed Staff Development Day on June 14, 2023! It was a day of learning, growth, and connection as Brown staff members invested in their personal and professional development, deepened their knowledge about Brown University, and gained insights into faculty research under the theme of "Cultivating Self | Nurturing Community."

Thank you for your exceptional contributions and unwavering support in making Staff Development Day an enriching experience for all. We are already looking forward to SDD 2024!
