Every three years the Higher Education Research Institute (HERI) at UCLA conducts a survey of faculty at colleges and universities in higher education. This survey is designed to gather information about the attitudes, job satisfaction, workload, teaching activities, and professional activities of faculty. Macalester participates in this survey on a periodic basis as part of a continuing effort to gather data that will be useful to faculty members, faculty committees, and administrative staff. Full time continuing faculty members (both tenure-eligible and non-tenure-eligible) are invited to participate in the survey along with a small number of continuing part-time and adjunct faculty.
