University
of Hartford-AAUP Chapter President Charles Ross plans CEW
events to bring attention to improvements considered necessary in
the
academic lives of adjunct faculty at the private institution. In
anticipation of CEW the ad hoc Committee on Part-time Faculty is
now
permanent and the UH faculty Senate/AAUP Liaison Committee was revived.
Recent part-time faculty initiatives include the option to teach
more
courses and bi-weekly payroll procedures for certain classes of
part-time faculty. Charles sees in CEW an opportunity to include
part-time faculty in shared governance and to engage in membership
recruitment.
