Prioritization Notes

Level 3 (Academic Affairs and Student Services, Provost, VP Office)

Combined with numbers 3 & 5 as part of initiative to resore lost faculty.

Level 4 (PBIE Committee)

PBIE ranking 1 for all Faculty positions brought foward. Full Time Tenure Track Faculty—Restored and New ($520,000/$520,000) Once again, the Committee has ranked faculty as our highest strategic need. We have bundled together all eight faculty requests and presented them as our top item. Quality hires serve the Vision and Mission statements and Strategic Plan of the college by providing contact hours with a dedicated full time professional in their field. Whether it is restoring faculty or providing new instructors, the PBIE Committee feels that nothing is more imperative. Some quick facts: 80% of Physics and Engineering courses are currently taught by adjuncts. Only 3% of Movement Science courses are taught by full time faculty. Human Services, a new degree program, has no dedicated full time faculty to teach or coordinate the program. Last academic year, 67 day courses in Mathematics were taught by adjuncts. These concerns can only be addressed by hiring the faculty recommended in item number one.

Level 5 (Cabinet)

Cabinet will also rank "1" for all Faculty positions.
