 Subject: MASSMAIL - Faculty opportunity


It is my pleasure to invite you, other faculty members, and postdocs 
to participate this spring in a faculty seminar, as part of the Preparing 
Future Professors project.
This project is supported by the Provost's Initiative on 
Teaching Advancement, and is consistent with the national Preparing 
Future Faculty program. 
Participants will be provided with a small honorarium as well as 
weekly materials and coffee. The seminar will meet on Thursdays from 
8:30 to 10:30 a.m., January 27 through April 20, 2000, in Grainger 
Library.
The University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign is committed to 
preparing graduate students for both academic and nonacademic 
careers. This spring seminar will help participants develop 
departmental programs that better serve graduate students and postdocs in 
preparation for careers as college and university professors. Seminar 
topics will include motivation and cognition strategies, mentoring, 
teaching portfolios, and ethics in teaching.
Potential participants should contact my graduate assistant, Carol 
Mills, by e-mail to c-mills@uiuc.edu. Additional information about 
the Preparing Future Professors Project is on the Web at 
http://www.grad.uiuc.edu/pfp/projectdesc.html
We in the Graduate College are pleased to work with you to make our 
campus the best place for graduate education possible. 
We appreciate your support of the Preparing Future Professors project.

Associate Dean of the Graduate College 
Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering
