What is Connexus?

Campus Connexus is a fun, fast-paced opportunity to make meaningful scholarly connections with other faculty and research staff from across campus in an informal, social setting. Through a series of short, paired conversations you will meet UNI colleagues who are potential collaborators, mentors/mentees, and/or sources of expertise to help you make the most of your career at the University. During the event, there is also time for socializing and reconnecting with partners from last year's Connexus. There are no fees to register.
