Mentoring is central to academic science and to the success of our research communities. Therefore, it is important to come together to learn and practice the principles of mentorship. Thus, we invite all department members to a 90-minute workshop on mentoring, led by Suzanne Young (GSAS Assistant Dean for Graduate Student Professional Development). This workshop is for graduate students, postdocs, faculty, and staff as well, so all should come!
 
Ice cream and toppings for sundaes will be set up by 1:15 pm to help you beat the summer heat! The workshop will be based on the creamy richness of successful mentoring: clear and frequent communication, collaboratively developed goals, and maintaining a sympathetic, open stance towards mentees. We will also add sprinkles of how to pursue inclusive mentoring that recognizes the diverse backgrounds of mentees and promotes a growth mindset for you and your mentee. 
 
If you have questions, please contact Kara Swenson through Chemistry DGS inbox (chemistry.dgs@yale.edu), and if you have complaints about sundae metaphors, you can complain to Patrick Holland (patrick.holland@yale.edu) and bring your own dessert.
