Converse University puts a premium on instructional excellence and student learning. We value academic rigor and high academic standards that ultimately push our students to learn, to achieve, and to become transformative leaders who see clearly, decide wisely, and act justly. Instructional excellence, therefore, requires a great deal of planning and true commitment to the learning and success of others. Therefore, adjunct faculty must meet the qualifications for teaching courses assigned to them. Those qualifications are determined by the appropriate academic Dean in consultation with the Provost.
