Nicolet’s Leith, Diehl present at Midwest communications conference
Nicolet College Speech Instructors Ginny Leith and Susan Diehl recently collaborated to give a presentation at the annual convention of the Central States Communications Association in Cleveland, Ohio.
The two were panelists in a discussion on ways to improve communication between full-time college faculty and the increasing number of part-time, adjunct instructors being hired on college campuses.
Topics included ways to preserve curriculum integrity; how to assure student learning outcomes are the same whether the course is taught by a full-time faculty member or an adjunct instructor; and strategies to retain quality adjunct instructors.
Leith has been a full-time faculty member at Nicolet for 30 years. Diehl is an adjunct instructor at Nicolet and served as chair of the panel discussion.
