This is a year-long working group for for our first term deans (i.e., deans in their first five years) at which we address additional topics and share ideas, strategies, and struggles.
The working group aims to provide a safe space for open and honest dialogue among our first term deans. With that goal in mind, sessions are not taped. If you attended one of these meetings and would like a copy of one of the shared materials please email us at officeforfaculty@utah.edu.
