This memorandum is to solicit your assistance in informing faculty, graduate alumni, students, and staff about the Graduate Faculty Mentor Awards. The purpose of this program is to recognize faculty mentors whose dedication to graduate students and commitment
to excellence in graduate education and mentoring have made a significant contribution to the quality of life and professional development of graduate students at Florida State University. Noted in the Council of Graduate Schools
<i>A Conversation About Mentoring: Trends and Models </i>"Mentoring is distinct from advising.... It involves professors acting as close, trusted and experienced colleagues and guides....It recognizes that part of what is learned in graduate school is not cognitive;
it is socialization to the values, norms, practices, and attitudes of a discipline and university; it transforms the student into a colleague. It produces growth and opportunity for both the mentor and the student."<o:p></o:p></p>

Awards will be presented at the Faculty Awards Ceremony held in Spring 2020<span style="color:red">

We are asking that nominations be submitted to and reviewed by the appropriate academic dean’s office to determine whether the nominee is eligible to receive the award. The next steps may then be carried out by the academic dean’s office or at the department
level: The faculty member will be notified of his/her nomination and may obtain assistance in putting together a binder that includes the following supporting material: current vita, list of graduate courses taught over the past five years (2015-2019), graduate
level teaching SPCI/SPOT summary evaluation forms over the past five years, theses and dissertation committee supervision over the past five years, statement on graduate mentoring, and a maximum of three support letters. These support letters should be divided
as follows: two letters from either a single student, a group of students, alumni or student organization, and one letter of recommendation from either, staff, faculty, department chair, or academic dean. If the binders are put together at the department
level, they must then be forwarded to the appropriate dean. <o:p></o:p></p>
