PART-TIME INSTRUCTORS

Faculty Liaison Program: All part-time instructors are assigned a full-time professor to serve as their Faculty Liaison. The Faculty Liaison is a resource for the instructor, may be contacted by a student if there are issues that cannot be resolved with the instructor directly, and will provide instructive feedback to the instructor. This program is designed to promote excellence in teaching in all instructors. There are two main types of part-time instructors:

1) Adjunct Faculty: Many courses are taught by community professionals who provide their part-time teaching services to the Department.

2) Graduate Student Instructors: Students working on their doctorates in Counseling or School Psychology may teach courses in the Bachelors Program after they complete a rigorous course designed to prepare them for this activity.
