This is the mentoring list maintained by the graduate
student representatives to the Board of the Association for Women
in Slavic Studies. Thanks to Jehanne Gheith, who compiled the original
mentoring list, to Judy Kalb, Sheila Kunkle, Betsy Hemenway and
Laura Schlosberg who updated and maintained it.
If you wish to add your name to the list, or to correct
information on it, contact Cheri
Wilson.
Everyone on the list urges graduate students, undergraduate
students, and even junior faculty NOT to be shy or hesitant about
getting in touch. Mentors not only wish to help develop the future
of our profession, but also gain great satisfaction from learning
about the research and projects that will shape that future.
Unless otherwise indicated, everyone listed is willing
to mentor both graduate and undergraduate students.
