Development/diversity specialist Moody at UMaine this week
Faculty development and diversity specialist Joann Moody will visit UMaine on Tuesday Sept. 13 through Thursday Sept. 15. She will conduct a series of small group sessions involving College of Liberal Arts and Sciences chairs, directors and peer committees on Tuesday and Wednesday. On Thursday she will meet with people in similar roles in the College of Engineering and the College of Natural Sciences, Forestry and Agriculture. A former professor and administrator, Moody helps organizations “rethink and improve their recruitment, mentorship, retention and evaluation of faculty, students, and staff — especially women and U.S. under-represented minorities,” according to her Web site. She also works frequently with universities like UMaine that have received ADVANCE-NSF grants.
