Have a particular tune you want to hear us play? Request it on the School of Music website under UNI Guild of Carillonneurs.
In September the Center for Excellence in Teaching and Learning will launch “AI for Humans,” a monthly forum - equal parts presentation & open conversation - that invites faculty to examine how we are navigating life & work & learning with AI. The aim for the first session is to consider the broader context(s) in which our ChatGPT challenges have arisen and will play out. In October the topic will be more narrowly focused on "the art of the prompt", and in November the topic will turn to matters of “security, policy, and academic ethics.”
When war broke out in Ukraine, eight high school exchange students found themselves stranded in Iowa and unable to return to their home country. These eight individuals are now first-year students at UNI.
