As a University venue for interdisciplinary conversation, Green College is open to all faculty members of UBC and of other local universities at all times. Faculty members are welcome to attend lectures and other academic events at the College, to join the College community for dinner, and to bring their own graduate students with them. They are also invited to propose future academic events and programming for the College and to make nominations of possible Cecil H. and Ida Green Visiting Professors. Any faculty member who wants to know more about the College or to explore possibilities for partnership, including applying to become a formal Faculty Member of the College, is warmly encouraged to contact the Principal in the first instance.
