Thiel College faculty members recently completed the seventh annual Dr. Edwin Hodge Jr. Institute for Teaching and Learning for summer 2019.
Funded by the Emma Clyde Hodge Memorial Fund, the Hodge Institute is an intensive, cross-disciplinary faculty development workshop that takes place each summer.

After meeting in groups, faculty members came together to present and discuss their conclusions. The goal is to have a refined curriculum that meets the needs of students and faculty members.
The latest edition of The Bell is out.
The latest edition of The Bell contains great photographs from campus events and an exploration of the many different ways the campus creates community. Read the heart-warming story of the baseball team stepping in to support their friend Tom Sun ’19 for senior recognition, how about 50 years later Commencement speaker William Strickland Jr. rekindled his love affair with the College or how Greek philanthropies are making a difference across the region.
