Excerpt from Policy Forum Report,: Training Educators to Work With Students Who Are Blind or Visually Impaired: Convened on September 18-20, 1996 at the Grand Hyatt Hotel, Final Report, Year 4, Deliverable #9-4-1, Under Contract No. Hs92015001, January 21, 1997 A number of faculty-related concerns were also discussed in regard to program quality, such as the increasing number of courses being taught by adjunct staff rather than university faculty. When tenure-track faculty leave, too often they are not replaced, partly because it is difficult to find doctoral level applicants for these positions. Quality may be compromised because existing faculty are required to spend time recruiting students for VI training programs, and are being given more responsibilities outside the VI programs. With more responsibilities and fewer faculty, less research is being done in the field of VI. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
