Departmental Climate and GeoEthics
Responsible conduct of scientists is as important as the responsible conduct of research to maintain the health of the scientific enterprise. In this February 2019 webinar, David Mogk explores the nature of personal interactions and how they impact individuals in academic departments. Principles of professionalism will be introduced followed by examples of (un)professional behaviors that impact the "climate" of a department. Suggestions will be made on ways to assess your departmental work climate, and concrete examples will be provided on how to prevent (or mitigate) threatening situations should they arise.

Developing evaluation systems that value diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts: an active workshop for the geosciences
This workshop is aimed at helping the geosciences answer recent calls to action by revising promotion and tenure (P&T) and evaluative systems to clearly value and reward diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) efforts. In this workshop, we will discuss geoscience faculty perceptions and engagement in DEI work, as well as perceptions of DEI work within the context of evaluative systems from recent nation-wide interview and survey results. Participants will be guided to work collaboratively and develop mechanisms by which they can meaningfully value DEI work within annual evaluations and P&T policies.
