Abstract

Dr. Makini Beck is a Visiting Assistant Professor at the School of Individualized Study and the Department of Sociology at Rochester Institute of Technology. Her talk argues for improving mentoring practices for women faculty in higher education. Drawing on her research with STEM women faculty, a meta-synthesis of the literature and personal antidotes from within the academy, she calls for the necessity of mentoring approaches that are authentic humanistic, and critically disruptive of the institutional status quo.
