- delineate how the reduction in faculty has prevented regular faculty rotations through courses offered by the program, faculty are needed in upper division courses
- larger class sizes are needed due to the limited number of physics faculty
- the department is currently without any Assistant professors, the infusion of new faculty an essential component of a healthy department.
- Identify currently faculty that are willing to assume the responsibilities of a Department Chair
