Supporting mentorship is one of many ways the college can support our community in navigating academia and developing professionally. We define mentoring as "learning partnerships," where both mentors and mentees engage in mutual learning and sharing of knowledge, skills, and experiences. While mentors bring valuable expertise and knowledge to mentorship relationships, please remember that a person’s chair is best equipped with answering questions related to promotion and achieving professional success.
