The university expects faculty to contribute to campus life. They may be asked to sponsor certain student organizations or to be present at student and institutional functions. These activities should not interfere with faculty members’ academic workload. Attendance at convocation is encouraged.
Some faculty may also elect to volunteer for service in the community, including the church. Although it favorably views such participation in community life, the university does not require faculty to join or contribute to non-university organizations. Faculty who participate in community activities must not allow their academic workload to suffer.
