1.                 8:30 - AULs - regular

Marek Sroka - RPC

EC is investigating ways to expand support for the research needs of faculty. The committee met with the Marek Sroka, chair of RPC to discuss expanding that group's role in mentoring and providing support for faculty research needs. Other colleges have developed faculty mentoring programs which might serve as possible models, such as ACES (see http://www.aces.uiuc.edu/news/stories/news5395.html) and the Academy for Excellence in Engineering Education's Fast Start program. 

 

This will be added as a discussion item at the next faculty meeting.

Discussion Questions: What training and mentorship needs should the library be providing more support for, in order to help faculty develop as researchers and be successful in promotion and tenure endeavors?  What is the best way to organize and allocate support for these mentoring activities?

 

Marek suggested RPC might establish a "research interests" wiki to start the conversation on possible new ideas.
