Preparing Future Faculty: Ten Years Later
Murphy, Sean P.; Aiossa, Elizabeth; Winter, Mary Mugica
Teaching English in the Two-Year College, v37 n4 p350-362 May 2010
When Sean Murphy designed the Graduate Student Internship Program at the College of Lake County (CLC), his 2001 TETYC article about the then two-year-old program detailed his programmatic response to the job market. Ten years later, the CLC-DePaul University partnership remains the strongest of the original dozen cross-sector relationships CLC initiated, and DePaul's Department of English now offers a Certificate in Teaching English at the Two-Year College to its master's students. This article describes the evolution of a program for preparing future two-year college faculty in the context of the academy writ large and from the perspectives of the program's founder, the department chair who contributed to the program's success, and a program participant turned full-time tenured faculty member.
