The CLTL and the VPAA/DOF's office are delighted to co-sponsor a morning workshop on faculty mentoring with Becky Wai-Ling Packard, a nationally renowned expert on mentoring. Becky will start the workshop with an overview of mentoring infrastructures and networks. In particular she will share her expertise when it comes to mentoring newly tenured and mid-career faculty. We will then look at some case studies to talk as a group about the best ways to handle tough situations. Erica Bastress-Dukehart will follow with an overview of 91快活林's new faculty orientation, including some provocative classroom scenarios. During lunch we will talk about how we might better support all of our colleagues through mentoring.

If you haven't already, please take a look at Becky's webpage. ()
