Over the years, the OCIS Junior Faculty Consortium has played a significant role in helping hundreds of scholars develop their careers and build professional relationships. This year’s topics include publication quality and quantity, tenure and promotion, work-life balance, developing and fostering professional relationships, and other topics of interest to pre-tenure faculty.

  • Kathy Chudoba, Utah State University, organizer
  • Diane Bailey, Cornell University
