Their time together included setting goals, brainstorming ideas, reading drafts of written work, providing constructive feedback, and discussing setbacks as well as success stories. All three have reported worthwhile outcomes. Should there be other CAST faculty interested in utilizing this strategy, contact Associate Dean Gentry. She will be glad to facilitate the formation of one or more small groups, either for the remainder of the spring semester or for summer. Please consider volunteering to serve as an evaluator of an oral presentation on one or both of these days.
Volunteers commit to time slots that are one hour in length.
When lots of people volunteer, no one person has to be burdened by a major time commitment. Contact Kathy Sellmeyer , the graduate assistant for the Graduate School who is in charge of organizing volunteers for these events.
