Jul 31, 2014 at 8:03 comment added Mark Meckes From what I've heard, a statement like "It's … becoming the norm … for all junior faculty to have assigned mentors", has already been hedged enough to be true. Whether the assignment necessarily translates into any meaning mentoring is another question.
Jul 31, 2014 at 0:38 comment added RoboKaren I see it at the R1s where I work and circulate. I can hedge that statement more if you like. In any case, most provosts are trying to create the facade that faculty mentoring is occurring although as I note in my last paragraph, quality is very uneven.
