CxC Team
Our multidisciplinary team includes teachers, students, researchers, scholars, and practitioners who continuously explore how students learn best. CxC faculty and communication coaches across campus test new methods, develop innovative approaches, and share what works with the broader academic community. The CxC Team is made up of 16 full-time staff, two graduate assistants, and 44 undergraduate coaches.
Since CxC began, this core team has taught 106 C-I Course sections with 174 collective years of teaching and learning expertise, and have produced 143 publications and presentations about C-I pedagogy and instruction.
The Student Communication Skills Development Team leads comprehensive communication support for all LSU students through workshops, peer coaching support, and recognition programs.
