Job Expectations
Faculty are generally responsible for evaluating 25 students/quarter. Faculty
are also responsible for advising students as they reflect on their learning process, develop a pathway of study, and formulate their own areas of concentration.
Our teaching is student-centered, which means we are interested in helping
students develop strong skills in critical thinking, problem solving, communication and collaborative work. Because over 80% of our students come from underserved and marginalized groups, we are particularly invested in approaches to teaching that emphasize diversity and equity, that provide opportunities for challenge and growth, and that foster a learning environment where all are welcome and all can learn from each other.
This position has the option to be offered remotely. For those courses being offered remotely a condition of employment is that you have residency in one of the following states: California, Florida, New York, Oregon, Texas, or Washington State and teach remotely from that state.
