Community Engagement Group Meeting
April 9 @ 2:00 pm - 3:30 pm EST
The USETDA Community Engagement Group was founded in 2021 to continue important conversations among members outside of the yearly conference. This group focuses on identifying opportunities for members to learn more about important topics in the ever-changing thesis landscape, promoting professional development among members, and creating a space for networking. Themes we will consider include:
- exploring resources and tools to help us advise students and other university stakeholders;
- building connections throughout campus to support the student experience;
- learning tips for navigating campus policies and processes, starting conversations, and recommending changes;
- considering the changing role of thesis reviewers in the graduate school and/or library and advocating for the professionalization of the role; and
- creating a supportive community among ETD professionals that promotes self-advocacy and self-care.
Our bimonthly meetings may vary in format, with some being led by USETDA members and others featuring invited guests. Anyone interested in suggesting a topic or signing up to participate in the group should complete this form. If you have questions please contact us at info@usetda.org.
