For workshops and activities 2019-2020
Return by: Thursday, October 31, 2019 for January 2020 Flex Days
Flex Days Theme: “Butte Strong!”
Our best ideas come from you! Most of the Flex workshops and activities throughout the year are presented by volunteers
with good ideas. These topics are suggested by faculty, staff and management like you from all segments of the college
community, people with expertise and interests in a wide variety of subject areas. Other workshops are selected at by
surveying the college community to identify needs. We hope that they will be rewarding to all segments of the campus.
Please participate in the creative process
We’re always looking for ways to improve workshop and activities, and we especially encourage all members of the college
communitystudents, faculty, staff and managementto suggest topics and to prepare presentations throughout the year.
Is there a topic you want discussed? Would you like to present a workshop? A seminar? Email:
wardte@butte.edu to share your ideas. Also, please contact any Faculty Flex Committee member to ask more questions:
Teresa Ward, Shaaron Vogel, Arah Hensley, Sara Smallhouse, Angela Ohland, Jesse Merz, Linda Johnson, Suzanne
Wakim, and Madeline Christopher.
Presenters can earn increased Flex credit
Faculty will receive more Flex credit for developing workshops. A faculty member who presents a workshop may receive
double Flex. For instance, a one-hour workshop would earn 2 hours Flex credit for the presenter.
