Our major, year-round, SRSU Instructional Services all-campuses event is our live and virtual “Brown Bag” presentations and workshops. Starting from 2003/2004 to the present day, Tim Parsons has been providing these informational Brown Bags every semester as either live events on the Alpine and Del Rio/Eagle Pass/Uvalde campuses , or (since summer 2020) as virtual events to all campuses. See recent Brown Bag event info/handouts/recording links here.
SRSU signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Sam Houston State University in 2020 agreeing to join Lamar Institute of Technology in a TSUS shared services partnership. The stated objective of this initiative is to share Learning Management System resources and instructional information in support of improving and expanding quality online education within the Texas State University System. See an overview of the scope of this partnership and details on new resources and expanded support services available to SRSU Faculty and students here.
