@booklet {1536513, title = {Assessing the Needs of Part-Time Faculty: Lessons Learned from the University at Buffalo}, year = {2019}, abstract = { According to the American Association of University Professors (AAUP), approximately\ 40\% of all faculty across all institutional types\ are now part-time. This subset of adjunct faculty is fulfilling a critical role in the higher education landscape, yet the variability of these appointments makes it exceedingly difficult to assess their needs and, ultimately, provide adequate support. In 2017, COACHE partners at the University at Buffalo set out to address this knowledge gap by adapting the\ Faculty Job Satisfaction Survey\ to suit the needs of their part-time faculty. In this webinar, Robert Granfield and Tilman Baumstark will share the challenges faced and lessons learned, both from their methodology\ and\ from their faculty, throughout this endeavor. }, url = {https://coache.gse.harvard.edu/event/webinar-assessing-needs-part-time-faculty-lessons-learned-university-buffalo} }
