RE:[tips] Research mentoring compensation
Mentoring independent research is what we do - an explicit expectations of our employment. So I wouldn't say we do it for free any more than we do all the other things we do for free: service on committees, publish papers, give talks, attend conferences, teach, write letters of recommendation, etc. etc. It is just part of the job.

RE:[tips] Research mentoring compensation
Which is why I like the word pro bono--for the common good. When students have a project they get their teeth into it's very rewarding; other times it's a drag because some are doing it because they see it as a plus mark on their grad school application--a hoop to jump through but they could care less about the hoop. But all in all, it's rewarding work on the balance side, even if draining; and even if the students never go on in school past their BA they have an insight into the process that they could not otherwise have received; and, if they do go on, they are a leg up on those who have not participated in the process, or who only did grunt work but got on a pub author list. However, this year I mentored 9 students; 7 for both semesters. I am so drained. It would be nice to have some compensation (I prefer accumulating units towards reassigned time) and recognition of how hard the work is. All of our honors students must have an official mentoring relationship and they pay tuition for those units. In a private school where the students are paying tuition for those units it seems to me the university is using us in a big way. I provided, over the academic year, 16 students times various amounts of units (not all took 3 units) worth of tuition income for the university. I would love to eventually have it accumulate towards reassigned time--when I can devote myself to research a bit more, with more student research assistants :) Annette Annette Kujawski Taylor, Ph.

Re: [tips] Research mentoring compensation
We have a merit-point system at ASU for various activities. A faculty member would receive some number of merit points for mentoring an independent study student, additional merit-points if the student is a co-author on a conference presentation, further additional merit points if the student is a co-author on a publication. At the end of the year, the chairperson takes whatever additional salary money we get from the College of Arts Sciences and spreads it among the faculty proportionally according to merit points. The merit point count is a running 3-year average to smooth out counts for variations in state funding year-to-year and to reward long-term contributions. Go here to find our current merit point document: http://www.psych.appstate.edu/faculty/forms.html The chairperson has the final say on the classification of merit. Ken --- Kenneth M.
