opportunity to participate in today’s seminar when I started graduate school, I would have said, ‘I don’t need a mentor; I’ve got it all figured out,” said Deondra Rose, M.A. ’10, Ph.D. ’12.</p> <p>Now an assistant professor of political science and public policy at Duke University, Rose returned to campus to address a roomful of graduate students and postdocs about the importance of mentoring.</p> <p>Rose’s talk, the second in the Maximizing Your Mentoring series, featured humor and anecdotes about the mentors she found throughout her academic and professional careers and the importance of finding such individuals.</p> <p>“My first year here I was very much going it alone. It was a terrible first year. I didn’t reach out and find my own community or group,” she said. “I got a little smarter by my second year and began to tap peer mentors in a really valuable way. And by my third year, I figured it out. I got wise, and I started to collect a web of mentors.”</p> <p>Rose explored how she acquired a network of mentors throughout her presentation, reinforcing the value of finding formal and informal mentors in varying career phases and from different institutions. She reminded the audience that mentors can provide insight not only into academic and professional pursuits, but in learning how to balance personal life as well.</p> <p>“A really good mentor provides support and encouragement. This is critical,” Rose said. “You might have people who are really good at critiquing you and telling you what you’re doing wrong, but it’s important to also have people who are willing to tell you what you’re getting right.”</p> <p>Rose left students with five “pro-tips”:</p> <ol> <li>Develop a rich web of mentors, not just one</li> <li>Do not hesitate to reach out to potential mentors</li> <li>Share the responsibility with your mentor for staying connected</li> <li>Constantly evaluate your changing mentoring needs</li> <li>Do not forget to be a mentor yourself</li> </ol> <p>“Change is a really important factor to consider when you’re thinking about mentoring and who’s on your mentoring bench. Mentorship changes. As you progress through your career, as you progress through your time as a graduate student or as a postdoc, as a junior faculty person, as a researcher – whatever your role is – as that role continues to change, your mentoring needs will also change,” she said.</p> <p>According to Rose, finding mentors is an integral to graduate student and postdoc success. The Graduate School offers multiple types of programming to address the mentorship needs of graduate students and postdocs, but offering alumni perspectives can provide further benefits.</p> <p>“It’s really an exciting opportunity to be able to invite back alumni to engage with current graduate students and postdocs, and to share insights from their time at Cornell and through their postgraduate experiences,” said Sara Xayarath Hernández, associate dean for inclusion and student engagement.</p> <p>The Maximizing Your Mentoring series is a collaborative effort of the Multicultural Academic Council and the Graduate School Office of Inclusion and Student Engagement.</p> <p><em>Katya Hrichak is a communications assistant in the Graduate School.</em></p> </section> </article> <div id="sidebar-bottom" class="secondary" role="complementary"> </div> </div> </main> </div> <footer> <div class="main-footer"> <div class="container-fluid sidebar-left"> <div class="row"> <div class="primary"> <h2 class="h3">Land Acknowledgement</h2><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><p>Cornell University is located on the traditional homelands of the Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ<sup>Ɂ</sup> (the Cayuga Nation). The Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ<sup>Ɂ</sup> are members of the Hodinǫ̱hsǫ́:nih Confederacy, an alliance of six sovereign Nations with a historic and contemporary presence on this land. The Confederacy precedes the establishment of Cornell University, New York state, and the United States of America. We acknowledge the painful history of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ<sup>Ɂ</sup> dispossession, and honor the ongoing connection of Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ<sup>Ɂ</sup> people, past and present, to these lands and waters.<br> This land acknowledgment has been reviewed and approved by the traditional Gayogo̱hó꞉nǫ<sup>Ɂ</sup> leadership. </p></div> <div class="two-col padded footer-links"> <div> <h3 class='h6'>Quick Links</h3> <ul class="list-menu vertical"><li id="menu-item-3570" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3570"><a href="https://intranet.gradschool.cornell.edu">Intranet</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3571" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3571"><a href="https://gradschool.cornell.edu/events/">Events</a></li> <li id="menu-item-124" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-124"><a href="https://gradschool.cornell.edu/resources/">Resources</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3573" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3573"><a href="https://gradschool.cornell.edu/forms/">Forms</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3574" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3574"><a href="https://gradschool.cornell.edu/policies">Policies</a></li> </ul> </div> <div> <h3 class='h6'>Affiliated Offices</h3> <ul class="list-menu vertical"><li id="menu-item-11623" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-11623"><a href="https://scl.cornell.edu/get-involved/career-services">Career Services</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3565" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3565"><a href="https://teaching.cornell.edu/">Center for Teaching Innovation</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3566" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3566"><a href="https://elso.as.cornell.edu/">English Language Support Office</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3568" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3568"><a href="https://assembly.cornell.edu/shared-governance-cornell/graduate-and-professional-student-assembly">Graduate and Professional Student Assembly</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3567" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3567"><a href="https://international.globallearning.cornell.edu/">Office of Global Learning</a></li> <li id="menu-item-3564" class="menu-item menu-item-type-custom menu-item-object-custom menu-item-3564"><a href="https://postdocs.cornell.edu/">Office of Postdoctoral Studies</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div class="secondary"> <h2 class="h5">Cornell University Graduate School</h2><div class="textwidget custom-html-widget"><p>Caldwell Hall<br>Cornell University<br>Ithaca, NY 14853-2602</p> <p>(607) 255-5820 </p> <p><a class="link-block" href="/about/contacts">Contact Us</a></p></div> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="sub-footer"> <div class="container-fluid sidebar-left"> <div class="row"> <div class="primary"> <ul class="list-menu"><li id="menu-item-4904" class="menu-item menu-item-type-post_type menu-item-object-page menu-item-4904"><a href="https://gradschool.cornell.edu/web-accessibility-and-privacy/">Web Accessibility and Privacy Help</a></li> </ul> </div> <div class="secondary"> <p class="copyright"><a href="https://www.cornell.edu">Cornell University</a> © 2024</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> </footer> <!-- Custom Twitter Feeds JS --> <script type="text/javascript"> window.ctf_custom_js = function(){ var $ = jQuery; var authorBoxLink = $('.ctf-author-box-link'); authorBoxLink.html(authorBoxLink.html().replace('>;', '> ')); }; </script> <script> ( function ( body ) { 'use strict'; body.className = body.className.replace( /\btribe-no-js\b/, 'tribe-js' ); } )( document.body ); </script> <script> /* <![CDATA[ */var tribe_l10n_datatables = {"aria":{"sort_ascending":": activate to sort column ascending","sort_descending":": activate to sort column descending"},"length_menu":"Show _MENU_ entries","empty_table":"No data available in table","info":"Showing _START_ to _END_ of _TOTAL_ entries","info_empty":"Showing 0 to 0 of 0 entries","info_filtered":"(filtered from _MAX_ total entries)","zero_records":"No matching records found","search":"Search:","all_selected_text":"All items on this page were selected.
