Issues Affecting Faculty and Students
This section highlights institutional decisions and policy changes that affect faculty working conditions and student learning conditions. We are committed to transparency. When changes occur that influence course assignments, class size, instructional format, workload, or academic processes, we believe our community deserves clear information.
Some of the items listed below are within management authority. Even so, decisions that affect the classroom experience benefit from collaboration with faculty. Our role is to document developments, ask questions when needed, and advocate for processes that protect both educational quality and fair working conditions.
We will update this section as new information becomes available.
MEMBERS' VOICES
"Multiply the additional students by the amount of grading time, and that's 33 more hours of grading time for me each semester--without compensation."
FULL-TIME FACULTY MEMBER
"The college provided no notification or explanation of these deductions that they knew would hit the day after Christmas... that seems heartless and wrong."
ADJUNCT FACULTY MEMBER
"We have procedures related to curriculum and program review that are linked to our accreditation."
