AGI Workshop on Diversity of Current and Future Faculty

The American Geosciences Institute and the National Academy of Engineering are hosting a professional development workshop for underrepresented-minority Early-career faculty, Doctoral students and Post-docs in the geosciences. We would appreciate it if you could distribute this information along to any qualified individuals. 
 
Our workshop is aiming to: 

1. Support early-career faculty success for underrepresented minority faculty and faculty teaching at Minority Serving Institutions so that they become leaders of the community efforts to increase diversity. 

2. Increase understanding of barriers to participation in the geosciences by underrepresented minorities.
 
Ultimately, our goal is for this workshop to be a catalyst for fostering a sense of community within our 30 early-career faculty participants, so that they can support each other in the future.
 
If you have any questions, please contact Heather Houlton at: hrh@agiweb.org
 
Thank you for passing the information on about this opportunity.

Sincerely,
Heather Houlton, Proctor Reid and Beth Cady
