FALCON provides the highest quality personal and professional development opportunities to part-time and associate faculty members from institutions of higher education around the world through networking, guest speakers, and expert panel discussions.
As such, FALCON is open to any non-tenured faculty teaching in higher education both nationally and internationally.
The Hass Birky Keynote Lecture was initiated in memory of Professor Robin Hass Birky, a faculty member in the Department of English, FACET member, and administrator at Indiana University Northwest, dedicated to the tenets to understanding teaching and learning practice. Her contributions to education are recognized throughout Indiana University and this Lectureship honors her dedication and commitment.
FALCON is a growing national conference with close to 200 faculty attendees in 2015. The conference was created to develop the personal and professional growth of adjunct faculty and lecturer’s within the higher education system. Part of that growth comes from connecting the companies that provide teaching resources and assistance to the faculty that need them!
IU has contracted with many publishers to avail faculty of a robust catalog of possible e-texts. All faculty have to make textbook decisions and we invite all publishers to join our conference and share information about their texts.
Faculty attendees of FALCON have come from IU and non-IU campuses.
