<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:11.0pt">I’m thrilled to report that we have had a remarkable response from established colleagues who are willing to mentor. My sincere thanks on behalf of the CSAA Exec to Lisa Slater, Andrew Hickey,
Holly Randell-Moon, Michelle Phillipov, Amanda Third, Anna Hickey-Moody, Elspeth Probyn, Tanja Dreher, Amy Dobson, Rob Garbutt, Catherine Driscoll and Angi Buettner. All mentors have significant and varied demands on their time, so it speaks to their commitment
to our scholarly community that they would make time to support emerging scholars. There is a wealth of experience and knowledge in the group and I’ve no doubt each will be able to offer much wisdom and support to whoever they are paired with.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

phone, skype or email, as mutually convenient. </span><span style="font-size:11.0pt"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
