Senior and Mid-Career Consortium: What’s next?

File doc 13KB

This session is designed to explore the many issues and challenges mid-career and senior faculty face as we attempt to juggle multiple demands and a changing educational and academic environment. This session will be a conversation toward continuing to build a community of support for ourselves. Topics could include:
• how do we keep our brains alive?
• what are we as individuals doing about retirement decisions – postponing, phasing in, taking advantage of retirement incentives, becoming an adjunct, or finding real meaning in new opportunities?
• are we thinking of changing directions as we continue our career? Considering taking on an administrative position?
• what are we doing now that we are passionate about and feeds our soul?
