2026 FACULTY MIXER

Socialize with your faculty colleagues and visit the University’s famous Kelsey Museum of Archaeology during our annual Faculty Mixer event. Snacks and drinks will be served, and the museum will be open for perusing!

Students will be on-site, in the exhibits, assisting with an optional scavenger hunt you are welcome to join. Come see the Kelsey Museum’s “first new permanent gallery in nearly two decades!”

The mixer is open to all ~7,800 members of the Faculty Senate, but space is limited. Please register using the link below.

Come meet your faculty colleagues and let yourself enjoy history!
