By Megan Brewer —

The Faculty Assembly meeting met Nov. 17 to discuss adding more tenure track faculty. The goal of creating more tenure-track faculty is to adhere to students needs.

The university’s enrollment goal of 30,000 students would result in tenure-track faculty having greater course loads or more contingent faculty being hired.

If tenure-track faculty were given more of a course load, Arts & Sciences Dean Kimberly Kempf-Leonard said Arts & Sciences research would be hindered.
