The Center for Innovative Learning is a new support organization for the existing programs on campus and will serve to encourage new learning opportunities.

The Center for Innovative Learning was born of a concept developed by Jeanne Slobod, a Kerrville philanthropist, and Dr. Kathleen Hudson, Schreiner English professor.

The Center exists to further Schreiner University’s commitment to be an institution where “all learn, all the time.” Its purpose is to provide interdisciplinary learning opportunities for students, the campus as a whole and the larger community.


Dr. William Woods, associate professor of English, serves as director of the Center. An administrative assistant provides support and acts as liaison between all offices on campus.


An advisory council is made up of faculty, staff, students, individuals from the community, and one administrative representative. The council’s role is to discuss coordination of innovative learning activities on campus, to be proactive in creating new ones, and to set priorities for the Center’s staff. Among the Center’s current programs are: Texas Music Coffeehouse, Living History Day, The Past Is Prologue, Speak Truth to Power, Monday Night Fiction, Hallman Chautauqua Lecture Series, Harry Crate Lecture Series, Labatt Speaker Series, Cooper Lecture Series and Leadership Institute.
