School doesn’t start at Slippery Rock University until next week but classes have already begun on campus- this time for new faculty members.
Faculty are meeting through Wednesday to get to know one another and learn more about how to be successful at the University.
SRU President William Behre- who is also a campus newbie having just started July 1- is welcoming participants to the campus and educating them on school policies and procedures.
“By being new to SRU, I’m also learning about the institution, so I can appreciate the importance of a thorough orientation program,” Behre said. “Our faculty are a strong part of the University and often the primary connection to our students, so it’s critical that new faculty are well-prepared and have an immediate sense they are part of the SRU community.”
There are 20 new faculty members joining SRU beginning this fall on the tenure track, as well as 22 temporary faculty members.
