Title: Areté

URL: http://www.american.edu/cte/arete.htm

Collection: American University Online Publications

Description: Center for Teaching Excellence's faculty newsletter. Areté, the title of CTE’s faculty newsletter, captures CTE’s essence in a word. This Greek term is often equated, seamlessly, with the English words 'virtue', 'excellence', 'goodness' and 'knowledge.' It embodies a belief that "the highest human potential is knowledge and all other human abilities are derived from this central capacity." In CTE, we believe that empowering students to achieve their highest human potential, through teaching, knowledge creation, and creative professional practice is the calling of every university faculty member. It is the goal – and privilege – of each Center for Teaching Excellence professional to support this calling at American University.

Title: The Blackprint

URL: https://www.theblackprintau.com/

Collection: American University Online Publications

Description: In 2014, American University Association of Black Journalists launched as a student chapter of NABJ. We are dedicated to creating a community of minority media professionals on campus through networking opportunities and organizing events featuring communicators of color. One of those events, which we started two years ago, was “Voices: A Conversation on Minorities in Media,” featuring local D.C. journalists who gave students crucial insight on the pros and cons of being a minority in today’s journalism environment. In 2016, Seniors Elisha Brown and Taryn Daniels created an extension of AUABJ titled 'The Blackprint'. The Blackprint is an online publication that doubles as a safe space for people of color at American University. Its primary goal is to not only inform people of what’s going on in their communities, but keep them up to date with the latest cultural happenings, fashion trends, and highlights of their community leaders' work through 'AU Excellence' features. We invite all minds and majors on this endless journey to stay honest, stay brilliant and stay woke.

Title: Eaglecaching

URL: http://eaglecaching.wix.com/aueaglecaching/

Collection: American University

Description: Eaglecaching is a project developed by students enrolled in the AU Scholars program at American University in Washington D.C. Based on the "Geocaching" trend, Eaglecaching works to connect individuals with the school in ways not commonly seen. Through the placement of hidden "caches", one can learn about the unique history of American University, and what distinguishes it from its contemporaries. In doing so, seekers are able to see American in ways previously unseen while also honing their critical thinking abilities. As the movement grows, more caches can be added around campus, further developing the motley collection of already existing caches located across the university.
