SUMMARY:Teaching Intensive Institutions: Tips for the Early Years
DESCRIPTION:At invitation of our CIRTL Network colleagues from UMass Amherst\, we are excited to share information about a virtual Teaching at Teaching Intensive Institutions conference on October 20\, 2023. Registration for all graduate students\, postdocs\, and recent graduate alumni is now open! The day features two panels: the first features senior faculty and administrators talking about what defines a teaching intensive and what makes it special\, while the second features early-career faculty who will share their experiences getting and starting their careers. \nSession 1 – Intro to Teaching Intensive Institutions\nFriday\, October 20th – 12:00-1:15pm\, online\nThink all faculty careers are the same? Think again! Do you wonder what an average day looks like at an institution that values teaching more than research? In this panel\, senior faculty and administrators representing community colleges\, state universities\, and liberal arts colleges will talk about how their institutions differ (students\, mission\, size\, etc.)\, the work they do\, and how this motivates their career choices in this space.\nSession 1 Registration \nSession 2 – Teaching Intensive Institutions: Tips for the Early Years\nFriday\, October 20th – 1:30-2:30pm\, online\nAfter many years at a research-intensive institution\, becoming a faculty member at an institution that values teaching over research can take some adjusting! In this session\, community college and state university faculty will reflect on their job searches\, transitioning to the teaching intensive environment\, and tips that helped them survive and thrive in their first year.\nSession 2 Registration \nAre you a graduate student\, postdoc\, or recent grad interested in attending?\nAll graduate students\, postdocs\, and recent graduate school alumni – from any college or university – are invited to attend this free conference!

Though open to all\, the priority audience for the institute is Cornell University graduate students and postdocs from backgrounds historically excluded from and underrepresented in the professoriate\, and/or those with a demonstrated commitment to advancing diversity\, inclusion\, access\, and equity in academia. \nAdditionally\, we invite interested Cornell faculty and staff to register for the networking lunch and keynote talk on June 6. (Graduate students and postdocs registering for the full institute will automatically receive registration to the keynote as well.) \n2023 Keynote\nTuesday\, June 6\, 2023\, 12:30 pm ET (Lunch from 12:00-12:30 pm)\n\nSuccessfully Navigating Academia: Structural and Agentic Lessons for Workloads\, Writing\, and the Workforce\nThere is no single solution for thriving in academia. In reality\, there is a constant interaction between forces under our control (i.e.\, agency) and forces outside of our control (i.e.\, structures) that impact and impede our ability to successfully navigate academic careers. In this workshop\, Dr. Damani White-Lewis will consider this duality within three essential elements of academic training: workloads\, writing\, and the workforce. Suitable for graduate students\, early career faculty\, and professional staff\, attendees will learn personal strategies and the necessary structural conditions that can be advocated for to improve their workload balance\, scholarly writing\, and hiring prospects. \nSpeaker\n \nDr. Damani White-Lewis\, Assistant Professor of Higher Education\, University of Pennsylvania\, Graduate School of Education\nDamani White-Lewis\, PhD\, is an assistant professor of higher education at the University of Pennsylvania. As an interdisciplinary scholar\, Dr. White-Lewis studies racial inequality in academic careers and contexts using multiple methods and theories from organizational behavior and social psychology. \nDr. White-Lewis’ work has been funded by the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the National Science Foundation (NSF) and has appeared in The Journal of Higher Education\, Research in Higher Education\, The Review of Higher Education\, American Educational Research Journal\, Teachers College Record\, and others. His dissertation received the 2020 Outstanding Dissertation Award from the National Association of Chief Diversity Officers. He has also received honors and awards from the Association for the Study of Higher Education\, the American Association of Blacks in Higher Education\, and the American Educational Research Association. As a public scholar\, he has been featured in outlets such as Inside Higher Ed and Diverse: Issues in Higher Education\, and regularly advises college campuses and external organizations on addressing issues related to the academic profession\, racial equity\, and institutional transformation and systemic change in higher education. \nThis keynote will be held on Cornell University central campus\, and livestream access will also be available to remotely participating graduate students and postdocs.  \nSponsorship \nThis is a collaborative initiative of the Cornell Graduate School Offices of Future Faculty and Academic Careers\, Inclusion and Student Engagement\, and Postdoctoral Studies\, and is based on work that was funded in part by the National Science Foundation (grant number 1647094; CIRTL AGEP). \nQuestions? \nPlease direct any questions to: futurefaculty@cornell.edu
