Charge:

1. Identify new tax faculty and doctoral students. Invite them to join the ATA and participate in the Midyear Meeting by way of a personal letter. Encourage them to submit papers to the New Faculty and Doctoral Students Paper Session at the Midyear Meeting. Encourage new faculty to apply for the ATA/PricewaterhouseCoopers Doctoral Dissertation Award.

2. Work with the Teaching Resources Committee to encourage new faculty to more fully use the teaching consultants and mentorship programs.

3. As needed, help new faculty become aware of places where working papers are posted and information on different research conferences where their papers may be submitted for presentation.

4. Organize a new faculty breakfast at the Midyear Meeting. Consider inviting more experienced faculty to speak at the breakfast on topics such as developing a research portfolio or career development within the context of different types of schools.

5. Welcome and introduce new faculty and doctoral students at the Midyear Meeting.

6. Consider whether the definition for new faculty should be expanded and make a recommendation to the ATA Board of Trustees.
