However, faculty often receive additional release time for service or research. I have always taught 2 or 3 courses per semester, but some members of the department do teach 4.

Word on the street
Announcement: “Thriving as an Early Career Faculty Member” mini-course at LSA meeting – Thurs., Jan. 8 10:00am to 3:00pm

The Linguistics in Higher Education Committee of the LSA is proud to host a 4-hour mini-course for advanced (post-qualifying) graduate students and post-doctoral fellows, providing them with a toolbox for thriving as early career faculty members. During the mini-course, participants will reflect on their identity as scholars, educators, and community members, taking into consideration best practices for thriving in these three areas. We will interweave the theme of thriving as an early career faculty member while focusing on the following key elements:

 a.         Identifying and developing your teaching philosophy

 b.        Integrating teaching, research, and service

 c.         Jump-starting your research program

 d.         Designing goal-oriented and student-centered courses

To register for the course, please go to: http://www.linguisticsociety.org/content/lsa-2015-annual-meeting-minicourses
