Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is the Third-Year Tenure Review Really Make-It-or-Break-It?
Q: What advice do you have for tenure track faculty as they prepare for and navigate the Make-It-Or-Break-It Third Year Review?
Emilio Ulloa advises treating the third-year review as a diagnostic process rather than a verdict, using both formal and informal feedback to adjust course as needed, communicating impact beyond the department, and actively seeking external feedback to avoid over‑specialized blind spots.
S5 Ep109: Not Just for Students: Bringing Life Design to Your Entire Campus
Q: What gap did you see for staff that led to the creation of the Center for Staff Life Design?
The gaps included opacity and unclear career navigation, silos that hinder networking, difficulty finding mentors, and feelings of belonging and purpose; combined, these issues contributed to turnover, disengagement, and missed opportunities for staff growth across the university.
How Do You Navigate a Potential Age Discrimination Situation?
Q: Dan, what are your thoughts on this?
He emphasizes that perceiving an age issue is not the same as proving discrimination. He suggests weighing informal, internal HR conversations and initial legal counsel to understand the law, while acknowledging the emotional and practical costs of formal complaints.
S5 Ep108: Pause Before You Panic: Supporting Student Mental Health on Campus
Q: So what led you to focus on bridging this research and practice in this area?
My earlier work as a college counselor revealed a disconnect between available supports and students' experiences; that insight guided me to pursue a research-informed path to improve messaging and access, a process I've continued for years.
S5 Ep106: The “Hottest Seat” in Higher Ed: Admissions Leadership Today Part 2
Q: What personal lessons from your career and your book can help someone avoid burnout in this demanding role?
Developing a clear sense of purpose, setting boundaries, practicing self-regulation, and prioritizing the institution's needs while balancing personal well-being are essential for long-term success in the role.
