Loyola College in Maryland has a 150-year history of challenging students to “learn, lead, and serve in a diverse and changing world.” The College has gained a well-earned reputation for strong teaching and educational leadership in the region, and among religious and secular private colleges of its size. Our goal is that Loyola students continue to receive a stimulating Jesuit education as the College grows and changes with the times. The faculty are the heart of our effort to provide the best education for Loyola College students. The Office of Academic Affairs is piloting the Faculty-To-Faculty Mentoring Program to support tenure track faculty as they acclimate to the Loyola teaching, research, and service environments. The program supports faculty members as they enhance their teaching proficiency, develop and integrate into their teaching schedules an active scholarly research program, and become involved in campus and community service. The Faculty-To-Faculty Mentoring Program calls on experienced tenured faculty to share their teaching and research expertise with faculty new to college-level teaching, or new to the Loyola community. Additionally, faculty who agree to mentor others will offer constructive and practical advice on how to “live” with the busy tenure process and the demands of campus life. The goal of the program is two-fold. First, it is part of our welcome to the Evergreen campus. Second, the Faculty-To-Faculty Mentoring Program helps participating faculty develop important links to Loyola’s larger academic and cultural community. |
