One very important factor gaining attention in the college student retention literature involves
consideration of the impact of increased utilization of part-time faculty and the degree to
which this utilization impacts student retention. Colleges and Universities rely heavily on parttime faculty, especially in teaching lower-level undergraduate courses. Is part-time faculty
having an adverse impact on student retention, mainly during the first year? Are colleges and
universities recognizing and studying potential issues that may arise when incoming freshmen
students are exposed to part-time instruction? This paper examines the impact of student
exposure to part-time faculty instruction and provides suggestions on how institutions might
thoughtfully engage this pervasive issue.
