@report {1311065, title = {Perspectives on Midcareer Faculty and Advice for Supporting Them}, year = {2014}, institution = {Collaborative on Academic Careers in Higher Education }, address = {Cambridge}, abstract = {This 8-page white paper was produced for an invited presentation at the Association of Public Land-grant Universities{\textquoteright} (APLU) Council on Academic Affairs Summer Meeting in Santa Fe, New Mexico. The paper examines the experiences of midcareer faculty, who\ face an increased teaching load, greater expectations for service and advising, a more competitive market for grants, and the disappearance of mentoring programs that supported them as early-career faculty.\ The toll of these obligations is heavier on women and faculty of color. Institutions can address the challenges midcareer faculty face by designing orientations that cover the entire career, implementing career re-visioning programs, providing opportunities for re-engagement, and mentoring associate professors.}, url = {https://coache.gse.harvard.edu/files/gse-coache/files/coache-perspectives-on.pdf?m=1447625224}, author = {Kiernan Mathews} }
