If you are a faculty member who feels that you don’t have the connections and support you need to thrive, FARE has the event for you. From 3:30 to 4:45 p.m. Thursday, March 12 in 112 Jardine Hall, the Office of Faculty Advancement, Retention, and Excellent is opening its doors for an informal gathering of faculty interested in connecting with other faculty for support in professional growth through mutual mentoring groups. Soda and snacks will be served.
The event will include a 10-minute presentation on how to set up mutual mentorship groups for success, but most of the time will be spent gathering in groups with colleagues who have similar professional goals, such as:
- Growing in teaching skills
- Improving in proposal writing or publishing
- Learning about AI or other emerging tech
The event is a great opportunity for those who could use a little extra support when it comes to networking or who have difficulty meeting faculty outside of their units. Contact Dr. Debby Hinsdale at fare@wichita.edu with any questions.
