  4. Resources/Policies to Help with Climate and Success • Ask about any mentoring practices and policies • (e.g. formal mentoring in CoE) • Tenure clock extension policy (Purdue) • Purdue Teaching Academy • Child care (including infant care) is available • NSF-ADVANCE FAST and other programs

  5. Ask about any other helpful practices and policies in your college (e.g. flexible Workload Policy in CoE) • Ask about activities that may help you get involved (e.g. Women’s Faculty Committees, Diversity Action Committees), but be strategic • Take advantage of programs for new faculty at Purdue (OVPR), college (orientation), and department (business office, graduate office)
