Orientation
Untentured Faculty Organization
Orientation
At the beginning of the academic year, a New Faculty Orientation process begins. During that Orientation, faculty have the opportunity to express interest in joining existing, or creating new Faculty Learning Communities that are composed of faculty who share a particular interest. Often these groups meet regularly during the academic year and enable new faculty to both meet other faculty and to become acquainted with teaching & leaning at WCU.
Untenured Faculty Organization
The Untenured Faculty Organization is primarily a social group, open to both tenure track and non-tenure track faculty. We meet several times a year simply to get to know each other and to have some fun, though we certainly might call a more serious meeting should need or interest arise. Past events have included hikes, rafting trips, and barbecues, and we are always willing to try something new. Neither dues nor formal membership are required. Contact Dr. Jamie Davis at jddavis@email.wcu.edu for more information.
Please take a look at the UFO web site for fun events that everyone can join.
