All new tenure track women are invited to participate in the program. Duringthe first years of the program, the women were paired with senior faculty members, mentors,from their college, but not from their department. Due to a shortage of qualified mentors, theprogram adopted a “group mentoring” model in 2004. Now, a group of women from the samecollege are paired with one or two mentors from their college.
