The Adjunct Files
Adjunct faculty are a growing majority in higher education, shaping student experiences while navigating the challenges of contingent employment. As adjuncts at a regional public university, we know firsthand the realities, rewards, and roadblocks that come with the role. That’s why we’re here—to boost your mood and pedagogy with insightful dialogues on current challenges, practical strategies, and pathways forward for you and your students.
The Adjunct Files
Meet the Pres.
President Timur joins Maggie and John to talk adjunct faculty support, her first (nearly) two years as President of FGCU, her story from Istanbul to the United States, being a TA to President. She shares how the 3 P's are part of her whole story, her style of leadership, her lessons learned, the importance of active listening and the strategic plan as we innovate to student success.
Theme music composed, performed and produced by James Husni.
