HEP Community Colleges on MLA Commons 12 years, 3 months agoHi all,
Looks like our membership is growing—this is very exciting!
I’m still learning MLA Commons, but it looks like only administrators have access to the Announcements page. If you want to share information, please post it to the blog or email me and I can post it to the Announcements page (sdonohue at cocc dot edu).Stacey

Correction: I’ve added a bulletin board style “forum” to the Two Year College Discussion Group (looks like we had one last year but it was not “active”). If you’d prefer to have a discussion there instead of on the blog, that’s another tool.

This forum is fine. Thanks for taking care of this.

@sdonohue Hey Stacey, I was trying to post something to the two-year college group, and there is no forum. Is that the case for the PTF group. I can post but others can’t? In any event, you might change the settings so any member can make a forum post! I am going to check the settings on the PTF group. Maybe that is why all of these groups…[Read more]

We have a blog: http://thetwoyearcollege.mla.hcommons-staging.org/ is that what you mean? I’m not sure about the distinction between a blog and a forum, but I’ll try to figure that out.

Margaret: I played around and reactivated the Forum feature (not sure why it wasn’t active). You should be able to post there now.

HEP Part-Time and Contingent Faculty Issues on MLA Commons 12 years, 3 months agoYou recently received a notice from the MLA that you are invited to participate in the discussion of the groups and how they are organized. Several respondents have suggested that the “Part-time faculty” group should be “changed” to the Non-Tenure-Track faculty group. There is a group that is “contingent labor in the professions” . It is a…[Read more]

Definitely keep this as part-time faculty. Universities such as Tiffin University do not have ANY tenure track employees/faculty as all full-time faculty are not tenured and no tenure is possible there. There is definitely a distinction between full-time and part-time and that does not necessarily equal tenured/non-tenured.
