5 2011 CIC Workshops for Department and Division Chairs Using Data at the Department/Division Level: Scenarios The Gift As chair of a three-person political science department you have been informed that the Development Office has received a major gift of $2 million from a donor who has stipulated that the funding is for a new Asian Studies program. The terms of the agreement indicate that this is a three-year gift that will fund a new faculty line, program related expenses, and limited travel and that the new program will be housed in your department. No one in your department, including you as chair, has been involved in the discussions that led to the gift. Several of your colleagues in other department are upset that their priorities were not shared with the donor. The curriculum for the new program will have to be approved before the start of the Fall semester. It will be your department s responsibility to present the program for approval by the curriculum committee and ultimately the entire faculty. 1. What data will you gather to support the adoption of this new program? 2. How will you respond to questions about the fate of this program after the three year gift period ends? 3. Do you ultimately have a way out so that this program does not get housed in your department? 4. Is there a better department for the program? If so, can you support your position with data? 5. What kind of data?
6 2011 CIC Workshops for Department and Division Chairs Scenario: A Critical Retirement You are the head of a Modern Languages Department at a nationally ranked liberal arts college facing the retirement of a long-time faculty member in German. This faculty member is the only German teacher on campus and is essentially the German program. The program offers a BA in German in a very traditional format. Enrollments in the German major have been dropping for several years to the point that in the upper division courses there are rarely more than 3 students. As a result the German teacher has been doing a number of independent study or tutorials with individual students to help them complete their degree. The administration has been questioning the feasibility of the German program for some time based on low enrollments and would like the languages department to drop German and develop a program in Asian Languages and Culture. The administration has indicated that the tenuretrack line could be transferred from German to this Asian Studies area. The administration also notes that prospective student interest in Asian languages is growing while interest in German is declining. You have asked a subcommittee of your faculty to study the situation and come back with a recommendation. They come back with a proposal to change the German major to a German Studies major with less upper-division courses in German and more courses in German history and culture taught in English. Their rationale is based on the following arguments and data: German is an important language spoken by 120 million people. America has strong ties to German culture. The college has had a German major for over 100 years. The MLA recommends that new languages should not be added by eliminating traditional language instruction, rather by adding new resources. The college faculty members agree with this stance. Current German enrollments, especially at the upper-division levels are admittedly low, however the change to German Studies will certainly increase student interest with more upper-division courses taught in English. Other nationally ranked liberal arts colleges have German majors and a list of peer and aspirant colleges is provided to which support this point. 1. Are the data points listed above sufficient for you to take a proposal to the administration to fund a tenure-track position in German Studies? 2. If not, what other data would you like to include you your proposal? 3. As the faculty have decided to support German Studies rather than consider moving to new language possibilities, are you ready to take that case on to the dean?
7 2011 CIC Workshops for Department and Division Chairs M E M O R A N D U M September 15, 2011 TO: FROM: SUBJECT: VPAA Department/Division Chair Request for additional staffing in the Department/Division I am requesting one additional faculty member to be added to the Department/Division. While I realize that these are difficult economic times for the college, I believe that the data strongly support my request. If it is not possible to add a new faculty line to obtain this position, then reallocating an existing line from Another Department/Division is appropriate. Following are the data which support this request: 1. Every class offered in the Department/Division during the academic year had at least 20 students enrolled. In fact, the average enrollment for courses in the Department/Division was 26. Our enrollments this fall are again over 20 in all of our classes. 2. Our department/division also provides more advisors to students than any other department/division. Each of the advisors in our department/division report that they are working with more than 40 advising folders. As you probably know, some departments/divisions have advisors who are responsible for only 2 or 3 students. 3. U.S. News and World Reports indicates that the faculty to student ratio at the College is 14:1. At the faculty workshop you stated, apparently incorrectly, that the student to faculty ratio at the College is 16:1 and that this is the target the College wishes to maintain. Either way, the average enrollment in the Department/Division is greater than our target by 10. It is not fair for the Department/Division to have such extreme differences from the stated goals of the college. 4. The Registrar has provided the Faculty Executive Committee with the enrollments in all classes at the College. Based on these numbers, my calculations indicate that the average enrollment in Another Department/Division is 8. Clearly, moving a faculty line from Another Department/Division to my Department/Division would be appropriate and work toward achieving the stated goals of the College. I realize that you just arrived at the College in July and that you are still learning about the College. However, I am sure that you will find the data presented above to be convincing and that you will approve the request of the Department/Division for an additional faculty member. In order to get the search for our new position underway, we will need to get our ads posted right away. I suggest that you buy me lunch and that we talk about how many finalists we should bring to campus for the new position.
8 2011 CIC Workshops for Department and Division Chairs Background on the College in the Case Typical CIC institution relatively small, church affiliated, private college. College offers traditional liberal arts and sciences majors as well as majors in preprofessional programs (e.g. Business, Criminal Justice, Education, Nursing, and Mass Communications). Full-time undergraduate enrollment is approximately 1500; part-time undergraduate enrollment approximately 700 (primarily non-traditional students taking courses in the evening or on-line). Two graduate programs (MBA, M.Ed.) offered primarily in the evening or on-line enrolling approximately 200 students. 93 full time faculty members; 96 part-time faculty members. The VPAA is new to the institution as July 1, The Department/Division Chair is tenured and in year 20 of service to the college. Questions to Discuss 1. Does the Department/Division Chair make a good case for an additional faculty position? If so, why? If not, why not? Do the data presented support the case for a new faculty position? 2. What other data might the Department/Division chair have included in this request? 3. What other questions will the VPAA want to ask? What other data will the VPAA want to examine? 4. Do you think the VPAA will buy the Department/Division Chair lunch?
