wheres the data to back up the claims on the wvwc page

WVWC's College Catalogs list current faculty and their Fact Books report data on Full Time Equivalent faculty. Only the current Catalog is available on their site, so I obtained hard-copies. By comparing the last ten years of these and identifying the names that appear and then disappear, the attrition rates can be calculated. In November 2007, the interim Dean of the College reported to the Faculty Senate that the ten-year attrition rate for tenured faculty was 28% compared to 11% for WVWC's peer group. Since then, several tenured faculty have left. Departments particularly hard-hit include Art, Chemistry, Criminal Justice, Mathematics, Political Science, Nursing, and Theater. Evidence for the cessation of pension contributions by the college during the State of Financial and Enrollment Emergency is on everyone's pay stubs. --Ibex99 (talk) 00:01, 19 June 2009 (UTC)

Thank you. A careful examination of the data is what's most needed there. Ibex99 (talk) 18:15, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
