Dear Members,
Both the College of DuPage Adjuncts Association (CODAA) and the College of DuPage Faculty Association (CODFA) were asked by the Board of Trustees to make a presentation at the regular Board meeting scheduled for Thursday, January 19th at 7 pm in 2200 SSC.
CODAA V.P of Policy, Jim Marseilles, and I will be presenting on behalf of CODAA. Although it is the week before classes resume, I hope you will consider attending the meeting to hear our presentation which highlights CODAA’s history, accomplishments, and challenges, as well as the accomplishments of, and challenges faced by, our adjunct faculty, and part-time counseling and advising faculty members.

Dear Members,
The CODAA board reviewed and discussed Dr. Rondeau’s responses to questions you raised at our Fall Members Meeting. Regarding Question 1 on the policy of hiring adjuncts as full-time faculty, we sent a follow-up question asking how many of the 13 adjuncts converted to full-time were CODAA members. We will add that response when it is received.
