English Area policy requires that adjunct ENG101
faculty will use one of the three books, listed below, as the core text for the class. If part-time faculty members wish to order
other books in addition to the core
text, that is very acceptable. Each
part-time instructor should contact her or his mentor to discuss this. The dialogue will be fruitful! Consult the lists below to get an idea of
other books that full-time faculty members use in their classes.
English Area policy requires that part-time ENG102
faculty and part-time ENG105 faculty
will use the books listed below as the core book(s) for the class. If part-time instructors wish to order other
books in addition to the core book,
that is very acceptable, but again, each part-time instructor should be in
contact with her or his mentor to talk about this.
