Center for Connection Culture

Founded in 2013 by Ann Louden, the former director of the Center for Connection Culture, and author Michael Stallard, the Center was established to protect and strengthen our commitment to connection, which is what makes TCU so notable. TCU has a connection culture that is both differentiated and relevant to higher education because of its shared group beliefs which create a unified, inclusive community. The purpose of the Center is to instill a lifelong commitment to connection, promote connection opportunities in the TCU community, and promote the teacher/scholar model and value diverse perspectives.
