medieval-religion: Scholarly discussions of medieval religion and culture
*Please forward liberally!*
The Society for Medieval Feminist Scholarship invites delegates of the International Medieval Congress on Medieval Studies at WMU in Kalamazoo, MI (May 12-15, 2016) to participate in the Annual SMFS Mentoring Exchange.
Graduate students, independent scholars, junior and senior faculty members - anyone at any stage in his/her career is welcome to participate as either mentors or mentees (or both). The aim of the mentoring exchange is to bring people together at Kalamazoo. Relationships can continue after the Kalamazoo congress, but we stress that the congress itself is intended to be the main venue of the exchange.
Here's how it works:
We encourage people at ALL STAGES of academic life to consider participating in the exchange. The commitment of time and energy is small, but the rewards at both mentor and mentee level can be very rich. (I can testify, having gotten so much out of it, as both mentee and then mentor, over the years!)
For more information on the Society for Medieval Feminist Scholarship see <http://hosted.lib.uiowa.edu/smfs/mff/index.html>. Please note that it is not necessary to be a member of SMFS in order to participate in the mentoring exchange (although we certainly encourage you to join - it is easy and worthwhile).
