The WFDC Mentoring Committee pairs senior women faculty members with junior members campus-wide. This committee offers a quarterly series for junior faculty on the topic of promotion and tenure (the Jr. Faculty P&T Prep Series) that is hosted virtually, as well as a virtual Peer Mentoring program.
The Mentoring Committee is looking to recruit a diverse group of faculty members to contribute relevant interest and skills to meet the needs of the committee. The Mentoring Committee meets four times a year and participates in the planning, development, and presentation of the Jr. Faculty P&T Prep Series.
Dr. Eylem Öcal coordinates the efforts of this committee that meets virtually via teams – we invite you to attend! For meeting details or to join the committee, contact Samantha Griffin at sgriffin2@uams.edu.
