Mentoring Mondays
Mentoring Mondays are casual opportunities to provide mutually beneficial “office hours” for each other. Feel free to drop in for part or all of the hour with a question, a new programming idea, a specific administrative or pedagogical challenge, and/or to hang out with other teachers of graduate communication and offer your insights. These sessions take place on the second Monday of the month.
Meetings: the second Monday of the month, from 12:00 – 1:00pm EST. No registration needed – just drop in!
Led by: Jane Freeman (jane.freeman@utoronto.ca ), Nathan Lindberg (nathanlindberg@cornell.edu) , Melissa Myers (mm177@cornell.edu ), Angelo Pitillo (apitillo@umich.edu )
