2024-2025 Membership 

In Fall 2012 the UW Tacoma Executive Council charged Faculty Assembly to address lecturer issues and their relationship to student outcomes on campus and an ad hoc Lecturer Affairs Committee was formed. The committee was disbanded for the academic year 2014-2015 and was reinstated in Fall 2015 with the following members. A call for volunteers was put out. The Non-Tenure Track Faculty Forum is a sub Committee of the Faculty Affairs Committee.
