Portraits of Practice began as a brown bag discussion and
presentation facilitated by faculty from the Moulton Scholars
program. Since its inception, it has grown to include
faculty members who are actively engaging their students in learning in a
variety of ways. A theme is selected each semester and topics
and facilitators are chosen to support an underlying theme of
the month.
