Colleagues,
This lovely suggestion from Linda Woolf was too good to wait until I
had compiled my summary of responses.

>I'm not currently on the Tips list (I periodically read the archives) so

>request, I have a related suggestion. Feel free to pass this on to
>Tips.

>One of the best things that we can do for our new faculty is give them a
>year's gift membership to the Society for the Teaching of Psychology
>(Div. 2 of APA). Their membership will connect them with psychology
>academics from all types of institutions around the globe, open them up
>to teaching related grants and opportunities, and will provide them a
>subscription to Teaching of Psychology (a bounty of information!). The
>Society for the Teaching of Psychology also maintains a syllabi data
>base, has a mentoring service, and a wide variety of additional
>resources.

>Currently during the Next Generation 2000 campaign, new faculty (less
>than 10 years experience) can join for $8.00 Graduate students can
>join for $6.00 and for the ole-timers in the lot with more than 10 years
>of teaching experience, the introductory rate is still only $10.00. A
>bargain in my book!
>
>Folks can go to the STP website for additional information and forms -

>Hope you are well and that your semester is winding down smoothly.
