Part-Time Faculty Commons and Resources
The Part-Time Faculty Commons is a one-stop resource center designed to promote student-to-instructor
interaction and provide instructional support for part-time faculty. It is conveniently located on the
first floor of the Crane Liberal Arts and Sciences Building in
LA 178.
Within the Commons, part-time
instructors consult with students, prepare for class at computerized workstations, and access copying
and word processing services. (Please note: WCC exclusively supports Microsoft Office.) The Commons
provides an inviting atmosphere and gathering place for part-time faculty to consult with colleagues
on instructional matters and access resources on effective teaching and learning practices. It also
serves as a communication hub with message services and campus mailboxes for designated departments.
