<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Exciting news! We're launching an inclusive cross-institutional mentoring program available to all professionals in writing and communication studies.
</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">Participants have their choice of focus areas, which include many different disciplines in addition to a myriad of pursuits
such as program development, curriculum design, writing centers, first-year writing, research/publication, career development, incorporating DEI, and more.
</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 12pt; color: rgb(0, 0, 0);">Hosted by the Association for Writing Across the Curriculum’s Mentoring Committee, the program will pair professionals in one-on-one relationships that not
only offer mentoring, but also create opportunities for cross-institutional connections among like-minded peers. This is a great opportunity for networking and career growth. AWAC’s Mentoring Committee will also offer optional online programming tailored to
participants' interests. </span></p>

just one hour of their time during the months of June, July and August, for a total of three hours. Mentoring can be conducted on Zoom, in email, or in any other format that makes distance connection possible. </span></p>
