1.  The New Faculty Mentoring Program:  (borrowed from University of California @ San Francisco w/ modifications:
http://acpers.ucsf.edu/mentoring/). This program is for new 1st year full-time tenure-track faculty and will be for a 1 year duration.  It is designed to put the mentee on a trajectory for professional advancement and achievement.  Each dean will pair a veteran faculty member (mentor) with a new faculty member (mentee).  Considerations for pairing can be based on any or all of the following: discipline compatibility, mutual interests, or interpersonal compatibility. (If for some identifiable reason for which a pairing does not work and which the dean accepts as rational, the dean may select a different mentor for the mentee).
