Proposal abstract :
The peer faculty envisaged are those with whom I could raise pertinent issues related to thriving so we can share mutual inputs as persons going through similar challenges by virtue of our minoritized status. Moreover, we share the status of full-time non-tenured, tenure-track faculty, and are thus ideal peer-mentors. Consequently, the Wabash Center’s “multi-year, peerto- peer, relationships through small group connections to enrich and strengthen teaching and the teaching life” is very good context to achieve this goal. Essentially, I aim to navigate this time with my peer with the Chinese worldview of “crisis” called Wēijī, a composite word meaning “danger” and “change point.” Our goal is to take the institutional climate seriously, discover and respond to its opportunities for personal, collective, and institutional thriving. With this grant therefore, we can be better at navigating challenges that are particular

The peer faculty envisaged are those with whom I could raise pertinent issues related to
thriving so we can share mutual inputs as persons going through similar challenges by virtue of
our minoritized status. Moreover, we share the status of full-time non-tenured, tenure-track
faculty, and are thus ideal peer-mentors. Consequently, the Wabash Center's "multi-year, peerto-
peer, relationships through small group connections to enrich and strengthen teaching and the
teaching life" is very good context to achieve this goal. Essentially, I aim to navigate this time
with my peer with the Chinese worldview of "crisis" called Wēijī, a composite word meaning
"danger" and "change point." Our goal is to take the institutional climate seriously, discover and
respond to its opportunities for personal, collective, and institutional thriving.
