"It was always my goal to be a teaching scholar. I learned after I obtained my tenure track position that one thing that set me apart from other candidates was my experience in the classroom. UNCG helps you to build this part of your CV like no other Ph.D. program. Mentorship is another strength of the program. My advisor introduced me to my scholarly community and encouraged me to become involved in conference panels, book reviews, and other things. Multiple members of the faculty offered advice and support on the art of instruction, career life balance, and ways to produce and disseminate my scholarship. I can honestly say that I would not have been able to achieve my goals without my experience in the UNCG program and the support of its excellent faculty."

Jamie Myers Mize earned her Ph.D. from UNCG in 2017. She is an Assistant Professor at the University of North Carolina-Pembroke. She specializes in the history of Southeastern Indians in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries with a focus on gender.
