Session 2: Being a Productive Scholar Panel
Panelists: David Baldridge, Oregon State University; Patrick McKay, Rutgers University; Lisa Nishii, Cornell University.
Presenters will lead discussions on strategies for being a productive scholar, including topics such as: how to position diversity and related research, how to be an effective teacher, how to collaborate or find writing/research partners, how to build your brand/ increase your visibility within your specialty area, and establishing an effective research stream.
