Other areas related to career planning were mentioned as skillspostdocs wanted to learn, including negotiating, interviewing, promotions, handling rejection,and managing uncertainty. Other important components needed for a postdoc to develop are supportive mentorshipand a community. The quality of the mentorship a postdoc receives can heavily influence theirsatisfaction in their role. This could negatively impact the increased productivity postdocs havein research publications by causing the postdoc to feel unprepared and take another position,stretching their time as a postdoc past the productive peak of 3 years [4].

The student ambassadors were given broad objectives to improve the college community and educate the student population about diversity, equity, and inclusion. An initial planned project of the ambassadors was to organize a DEI Takeover Week during spring of 2020. This project had to be postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The student ambassadors took this as an opportunity to instead develop programs focused on equity and inclusion issues that arose due to the pandemic and the transition to

The most common point of discussionwas how to engage members and issues related to attendance. Some advice from facilitators tocombat these issues centered on communication and planning as well as shifting some of theplanning responsibilities to the group. This recommendation was made because when that shifttakes place and mentees are driving the group connection, they participate more fully in themeetings and

The TH!NKinitiative is part of the North Carolina State University's five year Quality Enhancement Plan(QEP). This initiative is designed to train faculty to utilize strategies that cultivate students’ criticaland creative thinking in the classroom. TH!NK provides a comprehensive framework forimplementing strategies that support higher-order thinking skills through faculty training,mentoring, and formal assessment of student learning outcomes. In TH!NK courses, students areintroduced to and given opportunities to evaluate their own work
