Demystifying the Hidden Curriculum for New Professors
Friday, 2 August – 1:00pm EST – Zoom
An ASEH Connects Event
Join the Early Career Caucus and Women’s Environmental History Network (WEHN) for a roundtable discussion of tacit knowledge issues and the so-called hidden curriculum new professors face. This event aims to explore the diverse range of experiences of early career scholars, whether due to job type, different forms of privilege, and/or identity.
This event is open to anyone who wishes to learn more or reflect on the “hidden curriculum.” We invite senior scholars to share their perspectives, as well as graduate students and early career scholars in the midst of this career transition to bring their questions and experiences to share.
Panelists:
Sarah Hamilton (University of Bergen)
Elizabeth Chatterjee (Assistant Prof, University of Chicago)
Camden Burd (Assistant Prof, Clemson University)
Angélica Márquez-Osuna (Assistant Prof, Loyola University Chicago)
Ramya Swayamprakash (Assistant Prof, Grand Valley State University)
Moderators: Kristin Brig-Ortiz (Washington University) and Sarah Sears (University of California, Berkeley)
