You are invited to join us for a community lunch on Thursday, September 10 at 12:30 p.m. in the OCC Dining Room. This lunch follows a morning event where faculty will be exploring what we’ve learned through the Pathways II grant about how our students Know, Be, and Do in their formation. We’d love to have the whole Luther community join us afterward to celebrate and connect over a meal. To help us plan for food and seating, please sign up by September 3 on this online form to indicate that you’ll join us for lunch.
