Physics Short Range Plan

Goals

Create a 1-2 page document that advocates the hiring of new physics faculty at the associates level.

Outline Arguments

Compare Department performance in 2009 to current performance showing the impact of having a department with more than 6 faculty
Compare the number of full time faculty in peer institutions (ISU=6, average of peer institutions=13)
Identify currently faculty that are willing to assume the responsibilities of a Department Chair
delineate how the reduction in faculty has prevented normal faculty rotations through courses in the program, faculty are needed in upper division courses
