Hello,

This is a call for BOTH graduate student applicants and faculty
volunteers for the FEAST Mentoring Program.  Here is a brief
description of what the program is/does:

Our mentoring program connects FEAST graduate student members with
faculty member volunteers who can offer research, teaching, and/or
professional career-related advice and assistance. Both FEAST graduate
members who are part of feminist-friendly programs and those who have
fewer links with faculty working in feminist thought can benefit from
being matched with someone in their field who is willing to
participate in various helpful mentoring activities (e.g., reviewing
abstracts, providing reading suggestions, answering questions about
publishing or job interviews).

More information about the mentoring program, including the details of
the application and volunteering procedures, can now be found on the
mentoring program webpage at:
http://www.afeast.org/Mentoring/mentor.html.  (And thanks to our
volunteer webpage designer, Jeff Guevin, for creating the page!)

New applications will begin to be reviewed Sept.15, although there are
application reviews several times during each year (see the webpage
for these dates).

If you are a FEAST grad student or faculty member interested in
participating in the mentoring program, please view the page linked
above (which you can also access from the FEAST homepage by clicking
“Mentoring”), and also feel free to contact me with any questions.

--Jess Kyle, FEAST graduate student representative
