Meeting with Dean Kantor:

What might the role and within the domain of the SC to support our student’s proactively?

Many well functioning, yet disconnected dots of opportunity for students. How do students and opportunities (beyond scholarships) find each other?

• job opportunities perhaps on an SEHD portal.

• Ph.D. student funding, beyond grants: including undergraduate teaching

 

Continued conversation after Dean Kantor left:

  • Rachel suggested resource mapping as a tool; clearing house for SEHD
  • Would this be only around paid opportunities or more?
  • What are the existing resources and processes?

 

Next meeting: October 21 9:30 Zoom
