An organization and its culture thrive through the interaction of all of its parts. A truly whole-brain organization is one in which all parts are connected and learn from each other. This is a key part of our culture -- we each enrich our networks, and in turn, the entire network enriches each of us.

This fall, we are launching One McCormick, a series of talks focused on building community and enhancing connectivity. These short seminar-style events will allow our students, faculty, and staff to share more about key aspects of our McCormick community and to ask questions to learn more and to get an awareness of the entire network that makes up McCormick. The initial focus of the series will be on the student experience, including diversity, health and wellness, and student success, with additional areas of emphasis to follow.

At McCormick, our objective is clear: To produce the best people and research that will create the maximum positive change in the world. To achieve this, we need innovative, creative, and pathbreaking ideas. Those ideas are most likely to happen when we enhance connectivity with one another.
