Dr. Anna Versluis spent last week at the University of Colorado, Boulder, where she participated in a workshop for early career faculty sponsored by the Geography Faculty Development Alliance (GFDA). It was an excellent week, full of meeting other new geography professors from institutions across the United States and Canada, discussing how to improve our teaching and research, and considering how to better align our career goals with our deepest-held values, strengths and joys.
