The Faculty/Staff Resource Center functions as the university's Center for Teaching & Learning by connecting faculty and staff members with resources and events to enhance teaching, research, classroom assessment, advising, technology use, grant-seeking, department chair work, and other areas to enhance their work. The Center for Attention, Learning, and Memory (CALM) works closely with the FRC to provide services and resources.
