Thanks for the review Drs. Rivard and Haas.

Today’s New Faculty Orientation featured a hands-on activity buzzing with collaboration 🐺✨ Winners scored bragging rights and special red 3D-printed wolf trophies 🏆—made right here at NC State! Love seeing our newest faculty dive into the Pack spirit. #NewFaculty #3DPrinting #WolfpackPride

The best mentors break the mold. Growth often starts when we ditch the script. This week in Building Your Network, we’re exploring how powerful it can be when someone encourages you to zig when everyone else says zag. Week 2 is officially live! — catch up or join here: lnkd.in/eEhVtP7c

I’m very proud of the program this year. I’m also very proud to have produced this first instalment. @teachforaliving.bsky.social @thejoyfulacademic.bsky.social

This is a great opportunity if you are at all interested in mentoring. Sign up now! It’s open to all. Institutions and will be relevant to faculty, staff and students.

Yes, faculty should be mentoring. But it takes time it takes to mentor well, plus there’s a the lack of professional development (in doctoral programs) and lack of recognition for mentoring. Without training, all you know is how you were mentored, toxic or not. www.insidehighered.com/news/student...
