FACULTY DEVELOPMENT SEMINARS ON
TENURE AND PROMOTION for
NEW and JUNIOR FACULTY
Vertical Campus
One Bernard Baruch Way (55 Lexington Avenue)
14th Floor - Room 14-270
Friday, April 5, 2002
The Baruch College Affirmative Committee will sponsor seminars for
faculty on tenure and promotion. The underlying principle of the
seminars is for experienced faculty to share their knowledge,
experience and expertise, and bring that knowledge, experience and
expertise to the issues at hand. Faculty organize and lead most of the
sessions. The seminars are directed not at specific disciplinary
topics but at the common issues facing all faculty as they navigate
through the tenure and promotion process. Although the seminars
have been designed for new and junior faculty, all faculty are cordially
invited to attend.
This year, the Baruch College Affirmative Action Committee will offer
the seminars listed below. If you are planning to attend any of the
sessions, you may register by calling the Affirmative Action Office at
212-802-2865, or fax the registration form you will be receiving through
campus mail.
