Faculty of Color Resource Guide
In 2012, the Supporting Faculty of Color Through Tenure & Beyond Mutual Mentoring Grant Team produced a Faculty of Color Resource Guide to facilitate mentoring connections among faculty at the Five Colleges, share information on setting up academic work groups, and provide guidance on productive mentoring relationships and career development.
Mutual Mentoring Guide
To support the development of innovative, faculty-driven Mutual Mentoring partnerships, the CFTD has created a Mutual Mentoring Guide, which discusses the state of mentoring in academia; explains the benefits of the Mutual Mentoring model; provides suggestions for protégés, mentors, and department chairs; and describes sample mentoring projects.
Finding a Mentor
In a recent issue of the National Education Association’s Thriving in Academe, the CFTD’s Mary Deane Sorcinelli and Jung Yun published an article detailing how faculty can design their own flexible Mutual Mentoring networks. For more information, see below.
