Attending a cultural event is a really beautiful – often even unforgettable – experience for our students. Their ability to fully benefit from and enjoy a cultural event rests primarily in the hands of their professors like yourself who can provide the academic context and objectives for attending, and also share some practical advice.<\/p>\n
Made possible thanks to the support of donors, the Inserra cultural programs are developed for the students, as well as for Montclair State professors, staff and the larger community, over several months. Their active link to classes makes these programs particularly meaningful as they fulfill the university’s mission to provide dynamic and creative learning opportunities.<\/p>\n
The following tips\u00a0can help professors involve individual students or entire classes in these events in an effective way, while at the same time supporting the behind-the-scene organization:<\/p>\n

The success of Inserra Chair\u2019s robust program of Italian and Italian American cultural activities and events is the result of the dedicated efforts of many \u2013 from colleagues and students to outside partners and staff. We are grateful to all of those who collaborate with us both within and outside of the University. They share our commitment to promote the rich variety of the Italian culture with a wide array of programs.<\/p>\n
Outside Partners<\/strong><\/p>\n We welcome the collaboration of co-sponsors from outside the University community.<\/p>\n Co-sponsors often provide the critical financial support that contributes so much to a program\u2019s success.\u00a0 We accept checks or wire transfers from those interested in becoming a paid co-sponsor. For more information, please contact\u00a0inserra@montclair.edu<\/a><\/p>\n Other outside partners provide collaborative in-kind or co-organizational support that helps shape each event or activity.<\/p>\n Still other partners work with us in return for recognition as a co-sponsor of an event.<\/p>\n It is by working together that we are able to offer the exciting menu of programs that help\u00a0us fulfill our mission.<\/p>\n University Partners<\/strong><\/p>\n The collaborative efforts of University faculty, students and staff are behind the success of Inserra Chair programs. Since planning and organizing a large-scale Inserra event can begin as many as six to eight months in advance of the event, these collaborations require a strong level of commitment.<\/p>\n Thanks to the enthusiastic commitment and dedication of our campus collaborators, Inserra programs have made a tremendous positive impact not only on our students, but also on members of our campus and larger communities.<\/p>\n Our collaborators help us to:<\/p>\n\n
