Summer University is an employee professional development conference held for UVSC employees, by UVSC employees and other invited guest lecturers. A campus wide proposal went out to recruit employees from a variety of departments on campus to share their knowledge and specialties through workshops and classes with fellow employees. Employees attended classes that hosted topics and categories in areas exploring current UVSC initiatives, interpersonal skill development, technology skill development and personal interest and enrichment. "Every year the conference gets better and better", said President Sederburg during the final meeting on Thursday.Keynote speakers, Dr. Mario Capecchi and Dr. Mette Norgaard, were invited to address conference goers. On Tuesday Dr. Capecchi, a prominent professor of human genetics and biology at the U, spoke of his ground breaking research in genetics. He also spoke on the importance of education and "coming together as a group, or failing as individuals." On Wednesday Dr. Norgaard, an international leadership consultant and author of The Ugly Duckling Goes to Work, spoke on bringing more meaning and energy to work and maximizing your potential. "What I liked most about Summer University was all the information available to employees and it was also a great refresher", said UVSC employee, Travis Be-gay, Creative Director of the Design Center 'in Distance Education. On Monday, kicking off the conference and Thursday, ending it, UVSC employees and family members were able to enjoy a train ride on the Heber Valley Rail Rode.
