his Blended with Purpose Model. 

Lehman invites you to support colleagues and faculty leaders of the CUNY 
community who will be representing a number of disciplines from education, 
to the humanities, to the sciences and who will be presenting their own 
inventive methods for Blending with Purpose: pedagogical strategies and 
techniques that represent exemplary practice in classroom, hybrid and 
online teaching here at Lehman.
