The CETL’s Laugh Out Loud promises an enriching experience where faculty can enjoy humorous performances, actively participate and showcase their talents. The event aims to bolster a sense of community, camaraderie, and holistic well-being among faculty members by creating an environment that promotes laughter and artistic expression.
