Faculty Development Groups
Navigating Higher Ed as Adjunct Faculty
Description:
As adjunct faculty, it’s easy to feel disconnected—coming to campus just to teach, then heading home. This Faculty Interest Group (FIG) aims to change that by building a supportive community where part-time faculty can share experiences, exchange ideas, and learn about the many resources available at Kingsborough.
We’ll host guest speakers on topics like:
- Adjunct advocacy
- Health insurance, pensions & other benefits
- Opportunities for promotion & sub-lines
- Campus resources you may not know about
Most importantly, this group will be a welcoming space to ask questions, connect with peers, and grow together as educators.
All are welcome—come as you are!
