ASECS/Women's Caucus Mentoring Resources
THE DOCTOR IS IN
The Doctor is In is a mentoring help desk open to all ASECS members,
from students to late-career faculty. Contact the organizers to make an
appointment before or during the Annual Meeting, or just drop in on
Friday or Saturday. The volunteer mentors offer advice on a wide range
of topics including (but not limited to): appropriate structures for CVs; ;
writing job letters; managing a research agenda at a teaching institution;
matching your article to a suitable journal; interpreting readers’
comments after an article is returned and tackling a revision; writing an
book proposal for an edition, anthology, or monograph; finding the right
press for a book proposal; facing challenges presented to dual career
couples; addressing the needs and concerns of adjunct faculty and
independent scholars; getting your toes wet in Digital Humanities; and
thinking about your next book.
