Two issues of "Plantings," are presented. The 1986 issue is a panel discussion that considers the results and future plans of faculty development programs in three Minnesota institutions. In addition to the moderator, Robert Young, of the University of North Dakota, the panel consisted of Norman Noonan (Augsburg College), Chandra Mehrotra (College of St. Scholastica), and Jerry Gaff (Hamline University). In addition, the 34 faculty development programs funded by the foundation are identified by institution. The 1987 newsletter issue consists of an article on stress experienced by faculty members, information on the goals and strategies of the campus faculty development programs, information on approaches that do not work in successful faculty development programs, and an article by Chandra M. N. Mehrotra entitled "Evaluation of Faculty Development Programs Designed to Improve Teaching Effectiveness." Attention is directed to when to evaluate a faculty development program, who should be the evaluators, evaluation approaches, disseminating the findings, and lessons from past faculty development efforts.
