The Golden Hour
In an effort to bring the entire campus community together on a regular
basis, Ripon College has reserved one class period each week (Tuesdays
11:15 a.m. to 12:15 p.m.) to serve as the Golden Hour. This Golden Hour is reserved
for all-campus events such as the Opening Convocation, invited speakers
and first-year presentations which might attract a broad range of attendance.
No other classes or meetings may be scheduled during this time. The idea
is to have an hour free from all regularly scheduled events so the college
community can gather as a whole to share each event. The larger community
also is invited to attend these events. The following list will be updated
as events are scheduled.
To schedule an event, contact Deano
Pape, director of the Communicating Plus program.
