On June 30 and July 1, the JUSTICE Project at Canisius College hosted a Kagan Cooperative Learning Workshop. More than 40 educators from 14 different schools participated in the two-day training to extend their professional learning. By actively engaging in the workshop, K-12 teachers, administrators, Canisius faculty members and teacher candidates learned how to apply cooperative learning structures in their classrooms to increase student engagement.

In an effort to improve efficiency and reduce costs, the Accounts Payable Department will no longer process checks on a daily basis. Effective August 1, Accounts Payable will process checks twice a week, on Tuesdays and Fridays.
Direct pays, however, should continue to be created and sent to the Controller’s Office for approval on a daily basis. Please take into consideration when the invoice is due to ensure payment is made in a timely fashion. If you have any questions concerning this new policy, please call Shelly Baronich or JoAnn Feary in the Controller’s Office at Ext. 8525.
