ResultsDetailsAdditional Comments
Adjunct Faculty usually have both a college and a MEID (Maricopa Enterprise ID) email address assigned but may have only one or the other.
The Adjunct Faculty were solicited at the end of Fall Semester and again at the beginning of the Spring Semester.
3 solicitations were made during each period and were sent to both email addresses.
The solicitations were highly varied and requested completion of this survey as acknowledgement of receipt of email and to provide feedback.
Survey results include one or two responses from each responding Adjunct Faculty.
A graph of total responses over time and responsiveness by Academic Organization are shown below.
