Orientation for newly tenured faculty set for Sept. 11

An orientation program directed at newly tenured faculty will be held from 8:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Sept. 11 in Stewart Center, Rooms 218ABC.

The program was created based on feedback from the 2015 Collaborative in Academic Careers on Higher Education (COACHE) survey. Jessica Huber, associate vice provost for faculty affairs and professor of speech, language, and hearing sciences, says that associate professors indicated the need for additional information about new responsibilities associated with tenure and plotting their course to full professor rank.

Faculty tenured in 2016, 2017 and 2018 will automatically receive an invitation to the event. Registration is required by Aug. 31 at this Qualtrics link. A copy of the agenda for orientation can be found here.
