AI & Sustainability Panel + Discussion
Do AI’s negative impacts on the environment and society outweigh its utility? Or is there a way to generate and use AI in a more responsible and less harmful way? What is our institution’s responsibility? Join the Humboldt Advisory Committee on Sustainability on Wednesday, April 23, 3:00 PM -4:30 PM, Founders Hall Green & Gold Room for the conversation.

2025 Assesstivus Event
Please join us for our annual Assesstivus event on Tuesday, May 6th, 2024, from 3:00 to 6:00 pm at the Sequoia Conference Center, 901 Myrtle Avenue in Eureka. This is our fourth annual celebration and our second joint Cal Poly Humboldt-College of the Redwoods event hosted by Cal Poly’s director of assessment, Mark Wicklund, and College of the Redwoods Director of Institutional Effectiveness and Research, Amy Moffat.
Assesstivus is a lighthearted celebration of assessment work, bringing together colleagues from Cal Poly Humboldt and College of the Redwoods to share best practices, strengthen connections, and recognize the dedication behind continuous improvement. The event serves as an alternative to the compliance-driven side of assessment—focusing instead on collaboration, innovation, and the real impact of our efforts. Through engaging presentations, awards, and plenty of good food and conversation, Assesstivus reminds us that reflection and improvement are not just necessary but also worth celebrating.
Agenda:
3:00 pm food and drinks
3:30 pm presentations, awards, and prizes
5:30 pm reception with more food and drinks
Please RSVP by Wednesday, April 30, 2025, by submitting this form.
