SUMMARY:NCFDD Webinar: Overcoming Academic Perfectionism
DESCRIPTION:Do you struggle to share your writing at early stages because it’s not perfect?\nDo you find yourself devastated by criticism of your work?\nDo you beat yourself up every time the tiniest thing goes wrong?\nIs it difficult for you to celebrate other people’s success because it reminds you of your own shortcomings?\n\nIf any of these things sound familiar\, CONGRATULATIONS! You’re a perfectly normal perfectionist! The only problem is that the nature of the Academy is likely to exacerbate your perfectionist tendencies\, as opposed to minimize them. In this webinar\, perfectionists will unite to get clear about: \n\nThe causes and consequences of excessive perfectionism.\nThe features of academic life that intensify perfectionism\nStrategies to identify when your perfectionism is at work\, assess whether it is useful or debilitating\, and adjust your standards and behavior accordingly\nThe secret to finding real satisfaction in every step of the writing process\n\nFacilitator Information\nRosemarie A.

SUMMARY:Building a Better Graduate Education
DESCRIPTION:The CNY Humanities Corridor “Humanities Beyond the Academy” working group hosts a series of mini-residencies for publicly engaged humanistic scholars\, bringing together those interested in public humanities and careers outside the academy. Current mini-resident Leonard Cassuto\, author of The Graduate School Mess: What Caused It and How We Can Fix It and (with Robert Weisbuch) The New PhD: How to Build a Better Graduate Education\, offers a discussion focused on this topic.  \nScholars and authors Leonard Cassuto and Robert Weisbuch argue that universities need to undergo major reforms to their graduate training programs to improve career outcomes for humanities doctoral students. In this discussion\, they focus in particular on how proponents of change can find allies and overcome resistance to reform. \nCornell University\, Syracuse University and University of Rochester are collaborating to bring these mini-residencies together for Humanities PhDs and Postdocs.

SUMMARY:Empowering Graduate Students to Advocate for Change
DESCRIPTION:The CNY Humanities Corridor “Humanities Beyond the Academy” working group hosts a series of mini-residencies for publicly engaged humanistic scholars\, bringing together those interested in public humanities and careers outside the academy. Current mini-resident Leonard Cassuto\, author of The Graduate School Mess: What Caused It and How We Can Fix It and (with Robert Weisbuch) The New PhD: How to Build a Better Graduate Education\, offers a workshop specifically for graduate students in the humanities\, helping those who want to see and advocate for change within their own departments go about this successfully. The workshop aims to give attendees a toolbox for practical change\, indicating how they can achieve consensus on goals\, garner support\, and turn talk into action—letting graduate students themselves serve as key agents of change. 5 copies of Cassuto and Weisbuch’s book will be given away by raffle to attendees. \nThe CNY Humanities Corridor group is comprised of Cornell University\, Syracuse University and University of Rochester. \nRegister for Empowering Graduate Students

SUMMARY:NCFDD Webinar: Teaching with Empathy and for Equity at the Graduate Level
DESCRIPTION:The incentive structures of academia discourage faculty from investing time and energy in being good teachers and good mentors for their graduate students. Meanwhile\, the power dynamics in academia discourage graduate students from seeking the support they need. In this webinar\, we will discuss how faculty can effectively\, efficiently\, and inclusively advise\, mentor\, teach\, and support their graduate students. We will discuss strategies for building a foundation of trust in graduate teaching and mentoring relationships\, providing constructive feedback on student work\, and being advocates for students’ needs.  \nFacilitator Information\nJessica Calarco is an associate professor of sociology at Indiana University. She is the author of two books\, A Field Guide to Grad School: Uncovering the Hidden Curriculum\, and Negotiating Opportunities: How the Middle Class Secures Advantages in School.

SUMMARY:NIH Webinar: Becoming a Resilient Scientist Series – An Introduction to Resilience and Wellness
DESCRIPTION:Speaker(s): Sharon Milgram\, PhD\, Director\, OITE \nThis event is recommended for: Postbacs; Graduate Students; Postdocs/Fellows; NIH Staff Scientists/Staff Clinicians \nRegister for Session 1 \nAccessibility Information: Sign language interpreting services and live captioning will be provided for this event. Individuals who need other reasonable accommodations to participate in this event should contact Jackie Newell (newellj@nih.gov) or the Federal Relay Service @ 800-877-8339. Requests should be made as soon as possible. \n********************************************** \nBECOMING A RESILIENT SCIENTIST SERIES\nNavigating school\, the career exploration process\, research environments\, and the stress of national/international news can seem overwhelming and lead us to doubt ourselves just when we need confidence the most. Through workshops in this series\, we will work to identify attitudes and behaviors that can help us be more resilient as we navigate difficult situations in school\, work and life. Each workshop will highlight emotional intelligence competencies needed for success in research and healthcare careers and will provide strategies for developing these competencies as part of your educational journey. While you may participate in any of the webinars\, it is best to participate in the entire series as the material relates and concepts will be developed throughout the series. Data show that trainees who attended most of the sessions of the earlier “Becoming a Resilient Scientist Series” reported that they had become more resilient\, were better able to handle stress and conflict in their lives\, and would recommend the series highly to their colleagues. \nThe workshops in the series are: \nSession 1 (September 23) – An Introduction to Resilience and Wellness \nSession 2 (October 7) – Exploring our Self-Talk: Cognitive Distortions and Imposter Fears \nSession 3 (October 21) – Self-Advocacy and Assertiveness for Scientists \nSession 4 (November 4) – Developing Feedback Resilience \nSession 5 (November 18) – Managing Up to Maximize Mentoring Relationships \nIf you miss a workshop and want to watch the recording\, please visit the NIH OITE series page for links based on date and topic.
