College Staff

Faculty Chair Welcome:

Greetings and welcome to the Residential College of Science and Engineering at Slivka Hall! My name is Kathleen Carmichael, and I am the faculty chair for Slivka.  I know that I speak for all of our Slivka staff, fellows, and students when I say that we are delighted to welcome you to our community.  While our official theme is science and engineering, Slivkans’ interests embrace a wide range of creative and intellectual pursuits, as well as the just plain quirky. Whether you enjoy really offbeat cooking challenges, taking a role in murder mystery nights, or just hanging in the rec lounge for Movie Munchies, you’ll find your community in Slivka.

Slivka activities are also a great way to get to know our many faculty and graduate Fellows.  You’ll get the chance to meet our Fellows casually at Slivka’s weekly P2P (prof to peer) lunches where you can talk favorite fiction with academic advisors, find out why Applied Math is great for helping you solve puzzles, or ask Northwestern deans for their favorite fruit bread recipes and baking techniques.  You can also chat with Slivka’s awesome associate faculty chair, Suzan van der Lee (who hails from Earth and Planetary Sciences and can give you the latest dirt on earthquakes).

If you are someone who likes planning events—or just spending time with really fun people— Slivka’s amazing Exec board always welcomes new ideas and committee members.  In addition, through Slivka’s popular culture nights you’ll get a chance to see theatrical and musical performances with your fellow Slivkans and Slivka Fellows and share your thoughts on them together.
