What is the Junior Faculty League?

The JFL is an informal group to allow new faculty to socialize, network, explore Bozeman, and share peer advice for their careers and work/life balance. The JFL is open to faculty of all levels, including non-tenure track, postdocs, and adjuncts. It is also open to other junior and senior faculty members who would like to meet and/or mentor new faculty.
