Initiative Title | Hire New Full-Time Tenure Track Foreign Language Faculty (Goal #1) |
Submitted in Previous Year(s) | No |
Critical Information, Notes, Justification, Rationale | Retirement of Full-Time Tenured Faculty member, Edgar Gutierrez, from the Department of Global Studies necessitates imperative replacement. |
Consequences of this initiative not being funded | Unable to offer courses in Spanish and Italian at the Middletown Campus and reducing the number of FT and PT faculty at the Newburgh Campus to fulfill the staffing needs on the Middletown Campus.
Avoid over-reliance on Adjunct Faculty at a time of low availability of qualified part-time language instructors. |

Institutional Goals
Goal |
How will the initiative support this institutional goal? |
|
Middle States Accreditation requires Educational Effectiveness; that is to say that "the institution’s instructional, research, and service programs are devised, developed, monitored, and supported by qualified professionals." To that end, we require the replacement of retiring faculty with new Full Time Faculty.
|
- STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-2020
- PRIORITY I: Awareness and Access: We will raise the visibility of the College and communicate the value of a SUNY Orange education through enhanced outreach efforts and educational opportunities
- b: Increase the number of faculty, staff, and students to reflect the diversity of Orange County through focused recruitment initiatives.
|
New Faculty will serve native- and non-native speakers and interact with a variety of communities in the Orange County Region, thereby providing linkages between the college and diverse cultures. |
- STRATEGIC PLAN 2015-2020
- PRIORITY II: Student Support and Success: We will support our students in achieving their educational and career goals.
- c: Increase student retention, completion, transfer, and employment readiness.
|
New Full-Time Faculty are invested in the College and the Programming and therefore allow students to work closely with and gain the support of faculty who can help them to reach their academic and career goals. |
