| Thirty-eight new faculty members will start teaching this fall. |
From Sept. 11-15, 38 new tenure-track professors participated in the first Welcome Week for New Faculty. In previous years, faculty orientation has amounted to a day or two. This Fall Quarter, new tenure-track professors spent five days getting acclimated to the university.
“We want to make sure these faculty members get a deeper understanding of what's available to them and what's expected of them,” says Peggy Perry, director of the Faculty Center for Professional Development.
Tenured-track professors are required to balance their time between teaching, research/scholarship and service-orientated work.
“It can be challenging for newcomers and the first-time teacher,” Perry says.
Welcome Week was chalked full of comprehensive workshops about numerous topics including networking and building professional contacts, using various technologies in the classroom and developing an effective syllabus for learning-centered courses.
